Support good ecological and access management of Hastings Country Park by a well resourced team.
A review of SNCI's is very much needed along with a monitoring plan to assess existing designations and assess potential sites.

The built heritage and historic buildings found with Hastings are very important to a vibrant future. We strongly support this objective and would like to see new development taking into account this existing built heritage and improving it.

The Old Town has a long list of Unique Selling Points which rarely feature in tourism promotions. Several million people live nearby in France, Belgium and Holland and they should be constantly told about the offer for tourists

The SNCI review should not remove present designations if they now fall short, these sites should b enhanced back to their previous status. New sites should be added where appropriate.

Planning authorities should seek to enhance the environment as an integral part of development proposals, building in biodiversity & ensuring a 'good fit' into its setting & the wider landscape based on landscape character assessment. New development should aim to avoid significant adverse effects on the environment where possible. this is in compliance with PPS1 creating sustainable Communities & PPS9 Nature Conservation.

We are concerned that the critical success factor for this objective mentions improving opportunites for informal recreation of Hastings Country Park. Hastings Country Park is a SSSI & in part a Special Area of Conservation. It is currently suffering from footpath erosion partially due to visitor pressure. Existing numbers of visitors need to be addressed & access managed before aspirations to increase visitor numbers are considered.
More detailed maps illustrating cycle routes should be provided because of potential impacts on the SAC/SSSI

We are highly concerned there are no objectives for Climate Change included in this theme, especially given the coastal location. The establishment of a Multifunctional Greenspace Strategy would be a key consideration.

This objective on environment also could usefully include 'archaeology' in the list of assets to be enhanced & promoted. the County Archaeologist is keen to be more closely involved in the development of the Core Strategy.

Critical success factors - Many of these seem to stray into the teritory of policy or proposals which could be seen as prejudicing aspects of the strategy.
