Proposed Submission Core Strategy

Policy OSS2: Bexhill to Hastings Link Road and development

Representation ID: 20576

Received: 08/09/2011

Respondent: Hastings Borough Council

Representation Summary:

Hastings Borough Council considers it would be sensible to prepare for either option given the uncertainty around the Link Road. It would be useful to include more detail on the quantity, location and timing of housing and business development should the Link Road not go ahead, in order to assess how this will affect development in Hastings. This will be in keeping with guidance in the draft National Planning Policy Framework about planning strategically across local boundaries

Policy OSS1 - Overall Spatial Development Strategy

Representation ID: 20578

Received: 08/09/2011

Respondent: Hastings Borough Council

Representation Summary:

Support the level of development proposed by OSS1 as it is essential to the regeneration of Hastings and Bexhill. We suggest that further clarification is made in terms of how the reduced housing numbers (and further potential for this if the Link Road does not go ahead) might affect development in Hastings and Bexhill and how Rother will approach the duty to cooperate in terms of accommodating new development outside the district boundary, once this requirement comes in force through the enactment of the Localism Bill

. Policy OSS1 plans for 3700 - 4100 new dwellings over 2011 - 2028, 100,000 square metres of gross additional business floorspace and a focus on Bexhill for new development promoting economic regeneration and growth of the Hastings/Bexhill area (2050 - 2250 dwellings and 6000 square metres business floorspace). This is supported as it is essential to the regeneration of both Bexhill and Hastings.
