Dear Martin Grant Homes
 
Land at Loxwood Place, Loxwood Consultation
 
Thank you for sending to the Parish Councillors the Public Consultation document in respect of Land at Loxwood Place, Loxwood.
The Parish Council do not intend to submit detailed comments on the proposal but would refer you to the Neighbourhood Plan process currently being undergone by the community. We wish to carry this process through to its conclusion in early 2025 so that we can fully understand the community’s position with respect to potential site allocations and wider social infrastructure that is needed to support growth and change over the plan period. In this regard it is disappointing that neither the Parish Council nor Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group were consulted by yourselves on these considerations prior to the development of your proposals.
The Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group has engaged with you regarding your site following the Call for Sites and will be engaging with the community on this over the next 6 weeks. The Parish Council would therefore ask that you respect this Neighbourhood Planning process and allow the community engagement to reflect the wishes of the community whilst meeting the requirements of the Chichester emerging Local Plan. The Neighbourhood Plan Review will bring forward the best possible plan for development for the community rather than seeing development happening in a piecemeal, speculative fashion.
 
 
Yours sincerely
 
J Bromley
