Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Not specified

Representation Summary:

This is not justified in omitting White Rock Gardens from inclusion in the green spaces network that are to be maintained, protected and enhanced. The Oval in particular functions for Central St Leonards as the East and West Hills do for Hastings; that is, as an upland open area from which you may enjoy views and spaciousness. Given the high density of housing, and the similarly dense population, its role is vital. It is also a crucial link if the Greenway project is ever to be extended into central St Leonards.
