The Core Strategy should have a much more flexible approach to land supply and development locations. Placing the Council's Greenfield allocations on sites that have questionable delivery we consider to be contrary to the requirements of PPS3 and PPS12 in terms of maintaining a responsive supply of land for development and ensuring that sites are capable of implementation.
Land at West Bexhill is deliverable without significant new public infrastructure, and should form a component of the Council's land supply,

Without the delivery of the strategic Greenfield allocation at North-East Bexhill ,there is no 'plan B'. This seems to us to be unsound in the context of the new PPS12.
The Council has evidence in relation to
transportation and landscape matters, and these have been material to the selection of
the Preferred Options. These should be available via the Freedom of Information Act and please confirm that these will become available at this time.
