The Direction of Travel document (is a Regulation 18 Issues & Options consultation) which is being published as a first stage of engagement with our residents, seeking views and suggestions on how Arun should grow and develop in the future. This consultation identifies the issues and challenges facing the district and the options that could help address them. For example, we are asking about how best to balance the delivery of growth and regeneration across the district to meet Arun’s future needs whilst at the same time protecting the things we value about Arun.
The document can be viewed and commented on throughout the consultation period online (on the Councils consultation portal using the event link below) or viewed at the Arun Civic Centre and Bognor Regis Town Hall and is also available at the libraries within Arun District.
