Dear Mr
Re. West Durrington Development, West Sussex

I have been passed your letter addressed to our Chairman of Persimmon plc
for me to respond in my capacity of Managing Director for the South Coast region,
which is responsible for the West Durrington proposals.

I am fully aware of the local controversy that exists over this particular Local Plan allocation.
Persimmon Homes and its consortium partners, Heron Land and Taylor Woodrow have worked
within the democratic planning process over a number of years to promote the land for housing
development.Both at structure plan and local plan level, the proposals have been backed up by
independent planning inspectors.

Worthing Borough Council have now resolved to grant planning permission subject to the
signing of a Section 106 Agreement to provide for various community facilities and affordable
housing.

The proposals were accompanied by a comprehensive environmental impact assessment. The
West Durrington Consortium have worked hard to minimise the Environmental Impact of the
scheme, particularly with regards to the safety improvements required to Titnore Lane. I would
remind you that the safety improvements were required prior to the land being proposed for
housing.

The scheme will provide for much needed homes over 200 of which will be affordable.
Persimmon and its partners are committed to creating a quality development at West Durrington.
Whilst it is obvious that we can not appease everyone, I would re-emphasise that the land has
been promoted through the democratic planning process and is therefore a legitimate and
completely justified housing allocation-

I thank you for voicing your concerns but the development will still go ahead.
Yours sincerely
for Persimmon Homes (South Coast) Limited
Darren Jones
Managing Director



So, that is a reply to a letter I sent in July stating that I would not ever use that company until they pull out of the proposed project.

I suggest you write to them politely, but firmly, please don't swear as it makes the campaign
look bad, but do write, and they send a reply so it wastes their money which is good.

It ain't over, til it's over!
