The fear that a National Park boundary would constrain housing development within Brighton and Hove is based on the false premise that no development is allowed in National Parks.
A National Park does not prohibit development. It simply ensures that development is sensitively designed.
Our city can grow but, with a National Park, it will grow into a city of attractive, well-designed buildings which, surely, is what we want, is it not?
The more land covered by the National Park, the better, because it will be an end to cheapskate, ugly, thoughtlessly designed buildings.
