Question 9b. Are there any other ways in which the rural settlements could develop that would help address the issues and demands the District faces over the next 20 years? Customer Comment Reference NameReference Agent 00007Cheriton Parish Council 00007/00001/025 For those living in rural areas, the car is essential, future cars may well be more environmentally friendly. Provision for car transport must be maintained, especially as local bus services are being cut. Without cycle paths/routes, cycling is too dangerous on small country roads. 00009Compton And Shawford 00009/00001/026 Parish Council Conditions of Option 2 should also apply to Option 1 but with regard to capacity of facilities. 00010Corhampton And 00010/00001/024 Meonstoke Parish Council Further development within the settlement boundary is preferable to Greenfield aesthetically. However, Corhampton does not have the infrastructure and services (bus services and employment have reduced, Meonstoke School now infants only) to be a sustainable location for new development. 00012Curdridge Parish Council 00012/00001/001 Facilities and infrastructure in Cudridge unable to be improved sufficiently to serve additional development. 00015Durley Parish Council 00015/00002/023 Include Durley and Cudridge. 00016Hambledon Parish 00016/00001/028 Council Option 1 ensures rural settlements can house local people and retain services for elderly residents.Local services, including retail, public transport and local employment need to be maintained.Distinctiveness of the settlements should be protected. 00025New Alresford Town 00025/00001/028 Council Properties with approximately 1 acre could be subdivided , provided access from the highway can be provided. Use exception sites for affordable homes on the boundaries of the settlements. Summaries of responses to Core Strategy Issues and Options (October 2008) 1 Question 9b. Are there any other ways in which the rural settlements could develop that would help address the issues and demands the District faces over the next 20 years? Customer Comment Reference NameReference Agent 00029Otterbourne Parish 00029/00001/014 Council Why is Shawford not listedVillage design statements should be taken fully into account on planning proposals. 00030Owslebury Parish Council 00030/00001/008 Owslebury would welcome a small development with a village shop co- operative to sustain the school. 00043Wonston Parish Council 00043/00001/019 Yes, it is wrong to tar every rural community with the same brush. Each of those listed must be treated on its own merit, as indeed is the case in the questionnaire for the Key and Local Hubs. This will deliver flexibility and enable optimum local solutions to be developed. Our response is geared to our community; we do not know what would be best for others. 00121Mr A Foster 00121/00001/029 These should be 100% affordable local needs housing only. These settlements are low down the sustainability list 00134Mr Peter Franckeiss 00134/00001/025 Cycle lanes on roads, allotments, home work near each other. 00145Mr George Gray 00145/00001/020 Not applicable to Sutton Scotney which has had substantial development in recent years. Also flooding problems and no main drainage. 00146Mrs Judith Hammond 00146/00001/023 In villages, small developments place less impact on surrounding areas e.g Fifefield Way Littleton 00156Mr Philip Ross 00156/00002/023 There is no way that rural settlements could develop without destroying their character. Sutton Scotney is a fine example of how a village can be ruined by council pandering to developers. Summaries of responses to Core Strategy Issues and Options (October 2008) 2 Question 9b.

Customer Comment Reference NameReference Agent 00270Ms Meriel Walton 00270/00001/025 Its is possible to have a strategy for villages in rural areas. Limited growth encourage facilities which would encourage villages not to stagnate. Provide small scale business housing opportunities so young people can afford to stay. 00270Ms Meriel Walton 00270/00002/026 Possible to have a strategy for villages in rural areas. Limited growth encourage facilities which would encourage villages not to stagnate. Provide small scale businesses and housing opportunities so young people can afford to stay. 00320Ms R Wetherill 00320/00002/029 Option 1 for all except Micheldever which should be option 3 - creation of a new sustainably planned market town. 00511Mr Keith Story 00511/00002/023 Growthshould be limited to waht is essential to keep the primary schools and shops/post offices viable. Consideration should be given to re-opening recently closed primary schools and/or shops/post offices alongside limited housing growth which provides pupils and customers. 00556Mr A Gossling 00556/00002/025 Prioritise small scale development in rural areas to provide affordable housing for local rural people 00840Mr Paul Reeves 00840/00002/023 Development in Hubs and MDAs must not create rat runs in the nearby villages. 01083Ms Elizabeth Robinson 01083/00002/017 In my opinion limited growth is acceptable. Genuine derelict brown field sites (ie. not gardens) is acceptable to most people. Cramming high density housing in amongst established houses is depressing and anti social in the extreme. A small amount of spacious development around the boundaires is acceptable- but not out of character flats with no parking facilities just to bring in extra council tax. Unsuitable development is a short term fix for the greed of the few. Summaries of responses to Core Strategy Issues and Options (October 2008) 3 Question 9b. Are there any other ways in which the rural settlements could develop that would help address the issues and demands the District faces over the next 20 years? Customer Comment Reference NameReference Agent 01243Ms Serita Campbell 01243/00002/019 Building underground is the only way forward regarding development, in order to retain all rural green areas. 01265Ms N A Holladay 01265/00002/026 This question is only asked because the spatial strategy is wrong in the first place. The only development appropriate for these places is affordable housing for local people. 01283Mr And Mrs Roy And Jill 01283/00002/021 Phillips Rural areas and urban areas need to be clarified. Wickham is a rural village as it has limited facilities. 01297Ms Ann Sadler Forster 01297/00002/020 How can you lump together Knowle and Southwick. The latter is an old developed rural community while Knowle is new and as yet lacks a close community. Knowle can be extended without destroying it. Southwick probably can't. Why is Twyford, Old Alresford etc rural 01426Mr And Mrs Catling 01426/00003/015 The demands are unfair, blanket statements like these are unfair. 01501Revd David Simpson 01501/00005/019 1. More fitness facilities?2. Subsidised commuter bus services, alongside national marketing designed to overcome the deeply engrained class prejudice against the use of public transport. Perhaps a company with a distinctive livery to appeal to the commuter? Perhaps worth an experiments. Current services seem to serve the elderly shopper, rather than the worker. 01630Mrs Eleanor Watts 01630/00002/019 New housing has to go where the jobs are, preferably on brownfield sites- with a good cycle network. 01821Ms J Chapman-Andrews 01821/00003/011 I think it's a mistake to want to put so much development on the north side of Winchester which will require everyone to go into or through Winchester to get south. Greater development should be thought through in completely separate areas- what about Micheldever Summaries of responses to Core Strategy Issues and Options (October 2008) 4 Question 9b. Are there any other ways in which the rural settlements could develop that would help address the issues and demands the District faces over the next 20 years? Customer Comment Reference NameReference Agent 01923Captain John Ellis 01923/00001/028 Improved IT to allow remote or home working. Improved local transport services. 01929Mr Anthony Marshall 01929/00001/022 In view of the areas housing needs the development should be spread but balanced with existing communities. This would not swamp one particular area and soften the environmental impact on the whole area. 01931Mr Micheal Cunliffe 01931/00002/027 Growth must be limited!Facilities must be maintained, and increased.Flexibility is necessary to allow for sensible uses/reuses. 01933Mr David Parratt 01933/00001/015 I don't know enough about these rural areas to give an opinion. 01939Mrs Jean Buckle 01939/00001/022 Transport improvement imperative 01941Dr Richard Hallett 01941/00001/050 Allowing rural settlements a share of growth will make them more sustainable rather than just being dormitory ghettos. 01956Mrs Barbara Holyome 01956/00002/024 Option 2 should not rely on the facilities mentioned, all of which could be withdrawn - as is already happening to post offices, bus services and primary schools. 01959Sir Patrick Rowe 01959/00001/023 These neent o consider the policies of the proposes national park and the existing aonb. 01960Mr Ian Merritt 01960/00001/024 Rural settlements should be protected against development, but some provision for affordable housing units should be made.

Are there any other ways in which the rural settlements could develop that would help address the issues and demands the District faces over the next 20 years? Customer Comment Reference NameReference Agent 01964Mr John Beveridge 01964/00001/028 Option 2 is probably better for some of these settlements but not all. This would need further investigation and consultation to establish which. I note in the report following the Examination in Public that reference is made to a recommendation re the Hampshire County Structure plan that Micheldever Station should be a preferred site. for 3000 dwellings this could be re- investigated to see if this settlement should be promoted to a key status.
