Medway Local Plan (Regulation 18, 2024)

Representation ID: 3867

Received: 08/09/2024

Respondent: Miss Sarah Tyler

Representation Summary:

This is not housing needs of Medway residents as the increased housing is being occupied by people moving to Medway as they are not able to afford homes in London. What protections are in place to ensure that the new housing is for Medway residents?

I was not able to identify the proposed support for the gypsy and traveller communities as highlighted. Where are the new sites going to be for this currently there is only one in Medway on a disused car park, this does not provide security for them and still marginalises them to the other residents.
