Received: 26/01/2009

Respondent: Cllr Susan Prochak

Any delay on the construction of the Link Road releasing housing land, should not impact on the rural areas which have in the last 10 years had greater development than Bexhill. As the Plan has to be annually reviewed, all windfall developments should be counted in to housing targets.

Box 7 - Preferred Strategy for ensuring appropriately high quality development

Representation ID: 19143

Received: 26/01/2009

Respondent: Cllr Susan Prochak

Representation Summary:

Under the criteria, impact is listed. Impact should be defined and the definition include the necessity of small developments in villages. Robertsbridge over the last 10 years has increased by 200 homes. An increase can be absorbed if small developments are integrated, ie large estates are out of character and have a higher impact.

Box 10 - Preferred Strategy for Bexhill

Representation ID: 19144

Received: 26/01/2009

Respondent: Cllr Susan Prochak

Representation Summary:

Bexhill is a unique town as it has not been cloned into a town centre where you could be anywhere in the country. This character should be retained and improved. Its small shops are its character. The shopping area could be reduced. I am not convinced that Bexhill needs a high quality hotel, but one that will attract families. Bexhill is attractive for young families, who want a safe quality environment. I agree with the upgrading and care of the public realm.

Box 16 - Aim and Objectives for Rural Areas

Representation ID: 19148

Received: 26/01/2009

Respondent: Cllr Susan Prochak

Representation Summary:

The LDF cannot emphasise too much the quality of our villages. I support particularly the aim of improving access for residents and visitors. There should be a greater emphasis on the upgrading and introduction of footpath and cycle/bridleway networks.

The LDF can plan for technological support for such workers. I support conversion of buildings in the countryside to provide employment, if they don't exacerbate road use issues. Can the LDF provide support for the retention of shops and post offices as well as local food producers?

Box 18 - Preferred Strategy for Countryside

Representation ID: 19152

Received: 26/01/2009

Respondent: Cllr Susan Prochak

Representation Summary:

The plan for a rail link between Robertsbridge and Bodiam should be included. Work has already started on extending the line from Bodiam. It is perfectly feasible to extend the Robertsbridge end to Northbridge Street. benefitting Bodiam by taking cars off the road, and giving Robertsbridge a 'unique selling point' to attract visitors and local spend.
(Hasting BC have a biodiversity officer. How will RDC support ecological habitats?)
RDC has one of the largest areas of unmanaged woodland. This would provide work and income for alternative fuel. Can this be incorporated?
Can a greater importance be given to local food producers?
