Medway Local Plan (Regulation 18, 2023)

Representation ID: 344

Received: 21/09/2023

Respondent: Mr Declan Kennedy

Representation Summary:

Chatham Docks should not be closed, as it is a vital working industry in Medway, causing job losses. The site should be regenerated, with better keeping, and supported by the council, as it has been around for 400 years and contributes to the area's versatility and history. It is essential that Chatham Docks remains open. Everywhere shouldn't be homes. Medway City Estate has significant potential for redevelopment, including improved land use, suitable business spaces, suitable homes, and enhanced landscape and streetscape. Medway City Estate would be a great place for a waterfront site.
