Representation Summary:
T27 remains a narrative commitment without binding delivery mechanisms or quantifiable health outcome targets. There is no published Statement of Common Ground with NHS Kent & Medway ICB, although they are a statutory consultee with an explicit expectation of health infrastructure contributions. The policy lacks measurable metrics and a transparent equality or impact assessment.
Amend T27 to include protection, adaptive reuse, and business rate or planning relief for venues that demonstrably contribute to community health and circular economic activity, ensuring they remain viable over the Plan period.
