The
latest meeting took place on 6th November, after having to be
postponed from the planned date of 3/11/14, and was attended by 11 committee
members. There were also 11 members of
the public present. A new vice chair was appointed and a 4th
member from Pease Pottage was co-opted to the committee. Due to one member having to step down, there
is now one VACANCY for a member from HANDCROSS.
Work has
actively been ongoing regarding the Scoping Report for the SustainabilityAppraisal, which will soon be passed to MSDC for their input. It was discussed,
and is recognised, how important it is for the Parish to ‘push on’ with the
process, in order to get our NH Plan ‘made’.
Without a NH Plan in place, there is very little defence against
development in the Parish, as the recent Pease Pottage Golf Range appeal has
shown – the appeal has been allowed and now 95 houses are due to be built on
that site.
