  • South Hampshire Strategy a Framework to Guide Sustainable Development and Change to 2026
    South Hampshire Strategy A framework to guide sustainable development and change to 2026 October 2012 South Hampshire Strategy | October 2012 Foreword Economic development, skills, housing and many other issues cut across local authority boundaries, so it makes sense to address them in partnership across South Hampshire. By doing that, we will help maximise economic growth, bring about a renaissance of Portsmouth, Southampton and other urban areas, and ensure affordable family homes and good quality jobs for all. This document articulates the vision for South Hampshire‟s future and sets out the strategy to align policies, actions and decisions with that overall vision. It has been prepared by the Partnership for Urban South Hampshire (PUSH) with the close involvement of the Leaders, chief executives and other officers of all ten authorities which are wholly or partly within the PUSH area. It is an aspirational document which echoes the PUSH Economic Development Strategy in seeking a step change in South Hampshire‟s economic growth in a managed, sustainable way, with the growth shared by all communities. It reflects PUSH‟s track record of innovation in areas such as skills, housing and spatial planning, and underlines the credibility of the Partnership‟s submission to Government under the „Unlocking growth in cities‟ initiative. This is not a statutory plan; rather it provides a framework to inform and support the preparation of statutory local plans and the future review/roll forward of those which are already adopted. Its preparation jointly by the PUSH authorities largely fulfils the „duty to cooperate‟ on planning issues which is placed on them by the Localism Act.

  • Portsmouth Update Portsmouth Hasn't Had a Conservation Officer Since Early 2020 When the Last One Left. for a City Which Owes
    Portsmouth Update Portsmouth hasn’t had a conservation officer since early 2020 when the last one left. For a city which owes so much to defence heritage tourism, only using consultants makes no sense… In contrast, Gosport has the best conservationist in the area. As well as the proposed development at Tipner, advice will be needed on conversion of the former Royal Marines Museum to a hotel, the conversion of Boathouse 6 as a new home for that museum, Tipner West, Fraser Battery, dockyard buildings at risk, sea defences at Hilsea Lines etc… which is much better provided in-house. On 9 March Portsmouth planning committee was due to discuss an outline application to build an 8-storey carpark and motorway interchange at Tipner to serve the proposed new community of 4000 homes to be built at Tipner West, now renamed ‘Lennox Point.’ The Portsmouth News dubbed the carpark the ‘green mountain’; it would be jammed up against the M275. I pointed out that it ignores the warning from the MOD that any tall structures built within the ‘vulnerable building distance’ of their explosives store on Horsea Island would have to be ‘of robust construction and design so that should an explosion occur at the MOD storage facility, buildings nearby will not collapse or sustain damage that could cause injury to the occupants. In this context, buildings that contain large areas of glass, tall structures (in excess of 3 storeys) and buildings of lightweight construction are of particular concern to the MOD.’ (Defence Infrastructure Organisation Ministry of Defence 28 January 2021 Tipner West Environmental Impact Statements February 2021).

  • Southampton and Portsmouth City Deal
    Southampton and Portsmouth City Deal Executive Summary The Southampton and Portsmouth City Deal will maximise the economic strengths of these two coastal cities and the wider Solent area, by supporting further growth in the area‟s maritime, marine and advanced manufacturing sectors. Across Southampton, Portsmouth and the Solent, the marine and maritime sector already accounts for over 20% of gross value added and provides 40,000 jobs locally. Over the next 12 years this sector is expected to grow by 5%, driven in part by key assets such as the Port of Southampton, Portsmouth Naval Base; and the Solent Marine Cluster – which includes Lloyds Register and the Southampton Marine and Maritime Institute. Advanced manufacturing is also an area of strength, growing during the recent recession and creating almost 5,000 new jobs. The flagship proposal for this City Deal will support further growth in these sectors by unlocking two high- profile sites within Southampton and Portsmouth – one of which involves Ministry of Defence owned land. These sites, once developed, will provide: new employment space; new housing; and lever in significant amounts of new private sector investment into the economy. To complement this, the City Deal will also implement programmes to: align skills provision to employer needs; tackle long term unemployment and youth unemployment; and enable small and medium enterprises to grow through the provision of effective business support. Over its lifetime the Solent Local Enterprise Partnership predict the City Deal will deliver: Over 4,700 permanent new jobs particularly focussed in marine, maritime and advanced manufacturing sectors. Over 13,000 construction jobs.
