Review of Local Neighbourhood Plan for Chidham & Hambrook

Chidham & Hambrook parish council is in the process of reviewing its local neighbourhood plan. This is an important document that needs local input from those living in Chidham, Hambrook and Nutbourne East as it would make clear what kind of developments will be acceptable, permissible and what we should reject. In particular, the review will be directed towards future housing developments, the need for a local retail centre, leisure facilities, improved local transport and how we can protect our local countryside and open spaces. If you wish to be involved in the Review of our local Neighbourhood Plan, an open meeting is being held in the Chidham Village Hall on Thursday 22nd November at 7pm.

Local Plan Review: Chidham & Hambrook expected to take more housing: ‘a minimum of 500 homes’

Published in the Chichester Observer today, the Chichester District draft review of the local plan, incorporating the Chichester District Council preferred approach, will be considered by the CDC Cabinet on Nov 14th. Chidham & Hambrook will be expected to take additional housing, ‘a minimum of 500 homes’.  It is anticipated that the land for the additional houses will be identified in the revised Neighbourhood Plan that the Parish Council has agreed to undertake.  Apart from the additional houses in Chidham & Hambrook, and in addition to homes in other parts of the district, the plan proposes 1250 in Southbourne parish, and 250 in Bosham (Highgove Farm). The plan will go before the full CDC Council before the end of November and then go out for public consultation for 8 weeks starting in mid December.
