More nibbling at the village

Over the recent weeks, there have been several speculative planning applications submitted.

Y/1/17/OUT Bonhams Field, Main Road, Yapton
Outline Application for 56 dwellings with associated open space and creation of new access. This application is a Departure from the Development plan & affects the character & appearance of the Yapton (Main Road) Conservation Area.

You can view and object online here.

F/7/15/OUT Land south of Burndell Road Yapton BN18 0HR
Outline application for residential development comprising of 45 dwellings. Formation of access onto Burndell Road (Resubmission following F/9/14/PL).

You can view and object online here.

Reasons to object:

Both sites are prime agricultural land.

The road infrastructure is at capacity and will result in an increase of traffic through the village and gridlock on the A259 between Felpham and Littlehampton at peak times.

Y/1/17/OUT
This is in a conservation area.

F/7/15/OUT
Potential to be a Road Traffic Accident (RTA) blackspot.

Whilst listed under Ford the development is in Yapton and is therefore in conflict with the Yapton Neighbourhood Plan.
