The proposed development in Allhallows does not adequately address the climate emergency and could exacerbate existing environmental issues, contradicting Medway’s Climate Action Plan and Corporate Strategy. The plan fails to consider the whole life cycle of buildings and their impact on the climate. Additionally, the proposal overlooks the need for facilitating working from home, as Allhallows already suffers from poor broadband and internet services. Increasing the population will only strain these resources further, worsening connectivity and impacting residents’ ability to work remotely effectively. The development should address these concerns to align with climate and connectivity goals.
