The snappy punchline of 'Green to the core' and 'Live well locally' is a bold attempt to show a commitment to protecting rural communities and local ecology but your HELAA land allocation of CAT0001 and potential site CAT0016 in Catsfield fly in the face of these claims/promises. The proposal of 60 new houses (some proposing to be built on protected AONB land) in this small rural village (doubling the size of the main village), is absolutely shocking and I object strongly to these sites being included for allocation in this plan. These proposals would not only destroy ancient woodland, biodiversity and protected wildlife habitats, they would also severely impact the lives of local residents with increased pollution and a serious decline in the already insufficient utilties and local infrastructure.

The 'Urban and Suburban' area type is taking over Little Common Village. The intense proposed development of this area is a threat to the Pevensey levels (Ramsar, SSSI, SAC and ancient Woodland sites), compromises the Historic assets of Listed buildings and Medieval farm, posses a danger to live along the A259 and the negative effects on the A259 in general, including occupants of houses flanking the A259 via pollution both noise and air. Danger to cyclist along this stretch of A259. Lack of suitable infrastructure in general.

There are opportunities to link villages by a network of routes that could draw in walkers, cyclists, wheelers and equestrians. It's important that the network itself is networked further by considering feeder routes and improving infrastructure to enable people to access improved routes.
