Urgent Message From Keep Hurst A Village:

The public consultation on the updates to the Mid Sussex district plan is now live. This plan includes building over 5,600 new homes across the parish and Albourne. This public consultation is our best chance to object to these developments. Comments from Hurst residents are the single most important action each of us can take. 

The deadline for submitting comments is the 7th September. Late responses will not be considered. The content and format of your objections are vital. Keep Hurst A Village and the College Lane Action Group have created a guide to help objectors file their letters. If you are interested in this advice, please click on the upper right of this homepage under ‘contact us’ with ‘letter help’ in the subject, and your name, email and house number.

We will not share this informational note with non-Hurst residents. If you know of anyone not online who needs letter assistance, or anyone who needs guidance in general, please let us know at keephurstavillage@gmail.com and our volunteers are happy to assist. It’s going to take a Village to Keep Hurst A Village, and Time is Running out!
