Representation Summary:
The vision is dependant on significant Government funding & this dependence may threaten the implementation of some key elements (paras 4.5 & 4.6)
The visiion is supported but it should go further, an annual increase in housing numbers of just over 200 dwellings a year (para 4.7) will not secure the necessary transformation of the town, the greater investment should be to encouraged.
Improved transport infrastructure is also key (para 4.11) but the Vision is optimistic in terms of timescale. It is unlikely that the Hastings-Bexhill link raod wil be built by 2011. However, it is important that housing & employment development is not restricted by any delay in the completion of the link road
