Representation Summary:

Housing is like rabbit hutches with no gardens for children to play in. Homes are still not energy or waste efficien because private landlords refused the grants to make profit before providing good homes.
Attracting a skilled workforce - We thought electric trains would increase people commuting - it did not. Only investors come.
The Grove, Filsham Valley etc will all shut, children still leave school unable to read or write. Its a society problem that still lingers.
Tourism has been affected by climate change. No one wants to come to the seaside any more. The A21 and A259 are still awful for pollution and local traffic. By-passess could have helped but they were never built. There are still no bus services after 8pm so businesses suffer. Retail space is hard to let and is affected by large supermarkets and the internet deliveries.
Pebsham Countryside Park is found to have increased the local population's chance of getting cancer because it was landfill until 2009.
