Simon Kirby MP

**The public consultation will take place** on Tuesday, March 11 between 5-8pm and on Wednesday, March 12 between 4-8pm at Longhill High School.

The proposals, which include approximately 100 properties on 46 acres, covers three parcels of land and abuts the National Park.

**Simon said:** *“Immediately I have a number of serious concerns about these plans and I will therefore be studying the information very carefully.*

*“I hope residents will use this opportunity to make their views known and, when the time comes, to make further representations to Brighton and Hove City Council. Ovingdean and Woodingdean are long-standing villages with their own unique characters and history.*

*“Residents will be naturally concerned if these proposals may change that and, alongside local councillors, I will be sure to work closely with residents on this matter.”*
