Rother Local Plan 2020-2040 (Regulation 18)

Representation ID: 25104

Received: 09/07/2024

Respondent: Brightling Parish Council

Representation Summary:

Section 9.94 has the right idea, but the wording is too weak. It is too easy for someone to say "my horses are fed hay so they don't need a hectare each". Perhaps one way of tackling this would be to require that if someone wants to provide for a greater density than one horse per hectare, that they have to present a land management plan as part of their application to justify the higher density.
