HAVE YOUR SAY ON PLANNING

Keep Southwater Green (KSG) have highlighted an important public hearing on the proposed Neighbourhood Plan you can attend on Friday 28th February - details on page 18. Ordinary members of the public can attend the hearing without prior invitation and will also have the opportunity to speak. KSG draw attention to the draft NP (Policy SNP2.1) that proposes to allow up to 450 new houses to be built on Great House Farm land – which by putting the Farm out of business would inevitably open the way for the 1200 or more new homes now being proposed for Southwater in HDC's local (ie. district) plan review.

On page 28 there are details of Horsham District Council’s public consultation on the draft Local Plan with a drop in session on 4th March at Beeson House. The Government requires all local planning authorities to build a significant number of new homes in the coming years. This will present considerable challenges for the Council. The Horsham District Local Plan will set out how the District will deliver these developments in a sustainable way and support the delivery of community infrastructures, transport links and opportunities for local jobs.

Clearly any proposed developments will divide opinions with the need for housing being weighed against the need to protect the countryside and prevent the ever increasing strain on services. Most importantly you must take these opportunities to make your opinions heard and please write to me with your opinions regardless of which side of the arguement you stand?
