Respondent: Rochford District Council
Southend’s plan-making should also consider and reflect the emerging economic strategy of the South Essex 2050 project, including the South Essex JSP, and should act as a mechanism to secure economic gains for both Southend and the wider sub-region. The economic strategy should consider and complement the economic strategies of neighbouring authorities across South Essex, allowing local and regional economic aspirations to mutually succeed. Southend should also continue to work with Rochford District Council to consider how both authorities’ economic aspirations could be met through any new strategic approach, such as the JAAP.
