ED2 preferred option

The Chamber needs to see the Area Action Plan details to enable them to comment on this proposal.



ED3 preferred option

We support,

However we need further details of the infrastructure plans to this and other major employment site eg the Airport.

We doubt the viability of relocating businesses for housing.

The danger of this policy in relocating businesses, will more than likely lead to relocation out of the area, probably westwards where infrastructure is better.



ED4 preferred option

The areas infrastructure needs considerable improvement to ensure employment retention and growth so that the areas economy improves to the well being of the area.



ED5 preferred option.

We support





ENVIRONMENTAL

ENV6 preferred option

Disagree



ENV6&7 items 1&2

The plan needs to look at and consider other options such as

Combined Heat & Power plants

District heat

Use of the water powers in the River Crouch with such items as;

Underwater generators

A barrage across the River Crouch west of Lion Creek to generate Hydro Electric Power as they do in Scotland, and at the same time it will create an excellent new leisure facility.



TRANSPORT

T1 preferred option

It's a nice concept

The plan will need more than developer 106 contributions.

Reflect reality the car is here to stay as per paras 5&6 highways page 65 and base policies accordingly



RETAIL

RTC4

Neither support nor object.

Until we see the Area Action Plan to enable us to comment constructively

The profile of Rochford needs raising to improve the economy to improve social standing.



UPPER ROACH VALLEY and WALLASEA ISLAND

ED2 Employment Growth - Preferred Option

Representation ID: 4208

Received: 16/12/2008

Respondent: Rochford Chamber of Trade

Representation Summary:

The Chamber needs to see the Area Action Plan details to enable them to comment on this proposal.

The Area Action Plan under consideration must be a fully deliverable plan. eg. if some elements are easier to do than others, they should not be done until the difficult issues have been cleared as deliverable. We could see pressure on pedestrianising the Square ( to promote the cafe culture), without resolving the problem of too many taxi ranks in the Square/ or what should be done to the Spar block ( which most see as an eyesore).
