New Local Plan
7.3
Representation ID: 3364
Received: 14/03/2019
Respondent: Southend Borough Council - Regulatory Services
We should absolutely do this. More children are becoming obese and we have a duty to protect them. Other local authorities have restricted their fast food premises so why can't we?

You say that conservation areas are protected so why has Adventure Island been allowed to expand on the seafront, blocking the view of the listed properties and causing a general eyesore that is not in keeping with the surrounding landscape?

7.1 Continue to promote improved and new areas of public realm. Do you think priorities should be established as to where this should take place

Yes. The biggest health crisis for children is air pollution so what is Southend going to do about this? Restricting cars to the seafront area would be great start. There are plenty of train stations and buses that people can catch to get down to the seafront.

Restrict fast food premises, build more green spaces and community based spaces so that people will have more safe spaces to access for leisure.

8.3 Should we require open space and play areas as part of new development schemes. Do you think in appropriate cases this could be provided in an offsite location

Respondent: Southend Borough Council - Regulatory Services
Yes new sites should not be allowed to develop without them. An offsite location would mean that children may not be safe and would be less likely to use them. They should not have to travel somewhere to play.

Yes - if we want to reduce pollution then surely we need to encourage a move away from more polluting vehicles by providing charging points.

11.1 What do you think are the key issues facing the neighbourhoods in the Borough
Representation ID: 3372

Respondent: Southend Borough Council - Regulatory Services
Parking in Leigh is a nightmare as it is in Southend during the summer period. On hot days it is gridlock at the seafront which makes it very unpleasant when one has to get around for work. The issue of lack of Housing is important however we must provide the associated infrastructure like green space, doctors, etc.

It is difficult. Although tourists are important for the town there must be a balance and schemes to encourage people away from car use must be considered. As regards Housing, the local authority must ensure that infrastructure is in place to accompany newly built properties.
