Medway Local Plan (Regulation 18, 2023)
Representation ID: 1072
Received: 30/10/2023
Respondent: Medway Green Party
Representation Summary:
Serious consideration needs to be given to on-going sea level rise and its impact on designated habitats and landscapes over a much longer period than the Local Plan, measured and modelled over centuries rather than decades, and more in keeping with the useful life expectancy of buildings. A large part of Medway forms part of the London flood plain and is considered expendable by higher authority.
