  • Development Sites and Policies Plan Statement on Issues and Questions
    Development Sites and Policies Plan Statement on Issues and Questions Issue 7– Housing Allocations including alternative sites for consideration (DSP40) October 2014 DCD-11 1 7.1 Bearing in mind the legal judgement referred to in my Question 1 to the Council (and the Council’s response), is the Council’s approach towards the identified housing requirement justified and in all other respects sound? 7.1.1 The Council’s approach towards housing requirements for the Borough is set out in paragraphs 5.172 to 5.174 and Table 4 (page 87) of LP2. The requirements for the Borough are separate from Welborne, as explained in the Council’s response to Question 7.2 below. The section of LP2 referred to above explains that the Borough’s housing requirements are established by Policy CS2 of the adopted Core Strategy. This in turn was based on evidence that supported the 2005 South Hampshire Strategy (DPH02) and was taken forward by the Policy SH5 of South East Plan (DOE1). 7.1.2 Paragraph 5.174 of LP2 explains that, since the adoption of the Core Strategy, the South Hampshire Strategy (SHS) was revised to take account of changes in the economy, including the recession (DPH01). The 2012 SHS is not a part of the statutory development plan, but is does represent the currently agreed PUSH position on the apportionment of South Hampshire’s housing requirements (see the Council’s response to Question 7.4 below). The 2012 SHS (DPH01) included revised housing targets for the period to 2026. The effect of this was to increase the Fareham Borough (outside of Welborne) housing target for the period 2011 to 2026 by 472 homes (approximately 31 homes per year).

    Part Two 1914 -1938 Part Two 1914 - 1938 Childhood and Families Alan Brind My granddad was Herbert Allen (Jack) Laxton 1884 – 1936. He married Eva Whitear from Titchfield in 1913 and they lived at 81 West St. Titchfield. Jack served for 24 years in the 108th Heavy Battery Royal Garrison Artillery which, as Sergeant, he left in 1926. He was a horseman par excellence and served the whole of WW1 in France and Belgium coming through numerous engagements uninjured. He was awarded a Mons Star with Clasp and Roses, British Army War Medal and Victory Medals. He left the army in 1926 and became a bricklayer and worked on the building of Titchfield Primary School and also the Embassy and Savoy cinemas in Fareham. It was ironic that despite having worked with horses throughout his army career, he died, aged 52, following an infection due to a bite from a horse fly. Donald Upshall As I was the first grandchild in the Upshall family I was named after my uncle who was killed in WW1. If you look in the church you will see his name on the remembrance plaque. My father started the garage on East Street when I was born. Now, in 2015, we've been in business 89 years. Today you don't realise how narrow the roads were then. There were no kerbs. You just walked along the edge of the road. But there wasn’t much traffic then. It is so different now of course. I remember the main A27 road. I used to push my brother in his pushchair all the way in to Fareham where they had all these Hornby toys.

  • Fareham Sarisbury County Election Address
    CONSERVATIVES COUNTY ELECTION SPECIAL InTouch FAREHAM SARISBURY DIVISION We alone have got the priorities right Conservatives put the elderly at top of the social care list SOCIAL CARE for Hampshire’s elderly is in the safest hands – the CONSERVATIVE County Council. The proof lies in the financial facts. This year, social care costs will increase by £21 million, so we had to make a bold decision to increase council tax by 4.99% to ensure our old folk are properly looked after. That was the maximum allowed without a referendum and that was what we did at the February budget meeting. So where did the other parties stand on this vital issue? Labour: Proposed a 3.99% increase which would have produced a shortfall of £5.3 million. Liberal Democrats: Voted against the budget, but as usu- al offered no alternatives as to how it could be funded. of us might wake up one day needing it.

  • 5. Fareham 5.1 About Fareham the Borough of Fareham Is a Coastal
    5. Fareham 5.1 About Fareham The Borough of Fareham is a coastal, mainly urban district lying between the cities of Southampton and Portsmouth. The largest settlements are Fareham town, Portchester, Locks Heath and Stubbington, with a large new development planned at Welborne, north of Fareham town. The district also includes Titchfield Haven, a well-known nature reserve and the point where the River Meon flows out to the Solent. Fareham borders the River Hamble to the west, Winchester district to the north and Gosport to the south and has a short boundary with Portsmouth to the east. The district is unparished. The principal road corridors through Fareham are the east-west M27, the parallel A27 further south and the A32, which runs north to Alton and south to Gosport. Fareham is the sole through-route for commuting into/out of Gosport, which together with high traffic flows along the motorway mean that routes through Fareham can be congested. There are local rail connections to Eastleigh, Southampton, Portsmouth and Brighton. Fareham has strong economic links with Portsmouth and many people who work in Portsmouth live in Fareham. The Solent Enterprise Zone at the former naval airfield HMS Daedalus lies mainly within Fareham. This is a significant commercial development which is expected to bring 3,500 jobs into the borough by 2025. The population of Fareham in 2015 is around 114,000. Development in Fareham in recent times has been spread all over the borough. Stubbington grew substantially after the Second World War but elsewhere in the borough the environmental constraints around Titchfield, the various water boundaries and the nature of the Gosport peninsula have meant that development has been slower than in many other parts of the county.
