Core Strategy Issues & Options
Question 15 re. the most appropriate development option for Bexhill
Representation ID: 18727
Received: 08/02/2007
Respondent: Batcheller Thacker
A number of development scenarios are set out in the draft DPD. The development strategy for the district will be underpinned by infrastructure improvements that are required to address poor connectivity.
Option 2 of strategy A is supported {expansion of Bexhill's role) but it is considered that greenfield development opportunities should not be limited to the north and north west {north of Barnhorn Road), and that consideration should be given to development south of the A259. Development in this sector would relieve the pressure to build in an area the council recognises is an attractive area of countryside. It would also be a more sustainable location for development leading to a more compact urban form in this area.
