Representation Summary:

Unsound: Regulation 18 activities allowed 8 weeks for consultation. The regulation 19 activities have been rushed through in 6 weeks during summer holiday season. The regulation 18 plan included 3 options, two of which did not include development at the orchards off Pump Lane (SA10). The council stated a preference for option 3 which again did not include development SA10. The development has previously been rejected by both Medway Council and Secretary of state. The people have therefore made it very clear in previous consultations that they do not want this development.
