LATEST NEWS: The consultation on the Waste and Minerals Core Strategy Preferred Strategy closed on 25 January 2010.
We are currently analysing nearly 3,000 responses received. It will take some time to do this but expect to publish the Council's initial response in late Summer 2010. Anyone who has sent in a representation will automatically be notified when this takes place. Anyone who did not send in a representation but would like to receive notification of key stages of the preparation of the Core Strategy should register with the Council's (click on 'Contact Us' at the top of this page).
East Sussex County Council and Brighton & Hove City Council received numerous letters about land fill and land raise and would like to assure you that the Council’s are looking again at this and all the practical alternatives that could be achieved. A factsheet has been produced and available to download along with FAQ's on the East Sussex website which sets out the problem of managing waste in East Sussex and Brighton & Hove and answers some of the questions we have been asked during the consultation.
The programme for preparing the Waste and Minerals Core Strategy (as set out in the Council’s published ‘Local Development Scheme’) is currently being reviewed to take into account extensions to the consultation period and the need to investigate issues that have been brought to our attention during the consultation. A revised programme is likely to be published in Autumn 2010.
