Medway Local Plan (Regulation 18, 2023)

Representation ID: 539

Received: 20/10/2023

Respondent: Francesca Baylis

Representation Summary:

There is no case for development in the AONB and the impact on the landscape cannot be mitigated. The Vineyard site was turned down on the same site due to the impact on the AONB and that was to be largely underground. There is absolutely no way that housing would be less obtrusive, especially a site that is considerably bigger than the rejected development and in clearer view from Brockles field (a key viewpoint) which the planning inspectorate agreed would be seriously damaged by development in this area. This would be a tragedy for future residents.
