Bernard's response to the Tendring District Council (TDC) Local Plan Review

This week I submitted a response to the Tendring District Council (TDC) Local Plan Review Regulation 18 consultation. The Local Plan must be driven by infrastructure deliverability. While communities across Tendring recognise the need for growth, the current infrastructure deficit cannot support the Government’s target of 1,063 homes per year without significant upfront investment. Highways and healthcare improvements must be delivered alongside development, and critical projects, like the Manningtree underpass, need to be completed first. 

You can read my full submission below.
