Thakeham residents will wish to note that, without waiting for the outcome of the appeal they have lodged against the refusal of their November 2015 application for 107 houses at Snapes Corner (DC/15/2374; Storrington Road), Gladman Developments have also now submitted a revised planning application for 60 houses on the same site. To find further details, follow the link below to the HDC planning portal, through which you may also submit comments on this proposal.
The Parish Council’s Neighbourhood Planning Committee will be considering its response to this latest proposal at its next meeting of 25 June. In doing so the parish will consider whether the new application remains subject to the various criticisms contained in its previous strong objection, as updated and submitted to the appeal process for DC/15/2374, which can be read here: DC-15-2374 Thakeham Parish response updated June 16
The appeal is being heard by an Inspector via an Inquiry but the time-line for the inquiry is not yet known.
