Medway Local Plan (Regulation 18, 2023)

Representation ID: 516

Received: 20/10/2023

Respondent: Mr Ben Sawyer

Representation Summary:

While it is noted that housing is required, Chatham Docks is not the place for this and has already lost around 1/3 of it's land 10 years ago to housing developers. Please note that within this 10 year period there has been less than 800 units built, just 80 per year as average. The ongoing success of Chatham Docks as an industrial port is critical to ensure jobs are maintained.
