    South Oxfordshire Emerging Local Plan 2011-2034 Summary and call for action A Better South Oxfordshire South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011-2034 South Oxfordshire is part of the Oxfordshire Housing and Growth Deal, along with the other district and county councils in Oxfordshire. In return for a payment of £150m to spend on infrastructure, Oxfordshire has committed to plan for 100,000 new homes in Oxfordshire over the period 2011-2031. To put this in context, there are currently 285,750 homes in Oxfordshire in total South Oxfordshire has committed to build 22,775 homes, far in excess of need, in order to meet the requirements of the Growth Deal. The Plan goes even further than this, proposing sites that will allow the building of 28,465 new homes. Currently there are 58,720 homes in South Oxfordshire, so this is a nearly 50% increase The proposed Oxford-Cambridge Expressway may add another 200,000 to Oxfordshire’s total Why so many – how South Oxfordshire developed the housing NEED Local Authorities have to establish minimum local housing need using the Government’s ‘Standard Method’ - this gives a figure of 556 homes per annum for South Oxfordshire, 12,788 over the plan period (2011-2034) However in 2014 a Strategic Housing Market Assessment (SHMA) was conducted for Oxfordshire, looking at housing required for projected economic growth – this gave a figure of 775 homes per annum, a total of 17,825 over the plan period Oxford City Council signalled it could not meet its own housing need and SODC consider they can take an extra 4,950 homes

  • Henley-On-Thames Is an Attractive Market Town Set on the River Thames in the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty
    HHeennlleeyy--oonn--TThhaammeess TThhee AAccttiioonn PPllaann ffoorr YYeeaarr TThhrreeee 22000066--77 Based upon the Countryside Agency’s Market Town Healthcheck Handbook CONTENTS INTRODUCTION 1 THE ACTION PLAN 2 CONSULTATION ON PROJECTS 3 HOW TO GET INVOLVED 4 SUMMARY OF YEAR TWO 5 APPENDICES ONE - Strategic Objectives TWO - Action Plan Projects –Short Term & Long Term Henley Action Plan INTRODUCTION Henley-on-Thames is an attractive market town set on the River Thames in the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. With river trade dating back to the 12th century and over 300 buildings designated ‘of special architectural or historical interest’, it is one of the oldest settlements in Oxfordshire. Although known worldwide for its rowing tradition and for hosting the Henley Royal Regatta, the town has much more to offer its visitors, businesses and 10,600 residents throughout the year. That is not to say that the town, like any small market town, is without its challenges. These include traffic and public transport issues, shortage of funding and lack of affordable housing. This Action Plan aims to address some of these issues and to make Henley a better place to work, live in and visit. To achieve this, all parts of the community need to work together –local authorities, residents, the business community and local organisations. Above all, the Plan demonstrates the need for effective partnership. 1 Henley Action Plan THE ACTION PLAN The Henley Action Plan sets out to provide a strategy for improving the town such as maintaining its retail competitiveness, and increasing its community spirit, through various economic, environmental, transport, and social initiatives.
