The three spatial growth options are misleading, descriptions in
consultation leaflet dont match diagrams. Option1 described as an urbanfocus, but proposes housing on ruralland on hoo peninsula. Option 2/3, like Option1, focuses
housing growth on ruralland in hoo peninsula
. None are sustainable options for the parishes. All three options would cause severe economic harm to the hoo peninsula and would create severe environmental damage.
Option3 allocates housing sites to accommodate over 40% of Medway’s
requirement in rural part of hoo peninsula where infrastructure is poor, contrary to NPPF policies on growth,
site selection, natural environment, food production, infrastructure
