4.2
Representation ID: 21022
Received: 11/11/2011
Respondent: Rother and Hastings CPRE
CPRE Sussex welcomes and supports the principle of the inclusion of 'Conserving environmental quality" as one of the "Main Issues" in paragraph 4.2. As recognised in "Portrait of Rother District", the great majority of the District is of very high environmental quality, in either landscape or nature conservation terms. The conservation of this quality is a priority both nationally and locally. However, conservation of this high quality is not enough - there are opportunities that should be sought and taken for the enhancement of that quality. CPRE Sussex therefore believes that the issue should be "conserving and enhancing environmental quality".

Vision for Rother in 2028...
Representation ID: 21023
Received: 11/11/2011
Respondent: Rother and Hastings CPRE
Support is given for the Vision for Rother up to 2028.
CPRE Sussex welcomes and supports the Vision for Rother in 2028, particularly the following elements:
There is a strong commitment to a more sustainable, low carbon future and adapting to climate change. There is sensitive stewardship of environmental resources and conservation of the area's outstanding environmental and cultural assets.
The inland and essentially rural areas of Rother, falling mainly within the High Weald AONB, retain their essential local character.
The character and diversity of villages has also been retained. They are vibrant and inclusive, having evolved organically in a manner sensitive to their surroundings.
The countryside continues to be protected for its intrinsic value as well as being more accessible and economically active, while change is carefully managed to respect its character.
