Page 3 of 8 P37/20 TO PROVIDE ANY UPDATE AFTER THE PARISH COUNCILS DECISION TO NOT ACCEPT THE TERMS OFFERED BY TAYLOR WIMPEY TO ACCEPT OWNERSHIP OF STRATTON’S COPSE Cllr Jackie Porter, Winchester City Council Councillor has had a virtual meeting with representatives from Taylor Wimpey. Cllr’s Izard, Hill and Veck received an update from Cllr Porter via Zoom. Taylor Wimpey’s have indicated that they would be willing to remove the Ash trees from the woodland prior to the land transfer if terms of a transfer can be agreed. The Parish Council indicated that they wanted a guarantee income to take on the woodland. The mast income has been reduced due to Taylor Wimpey renegotiating the lease for the mast in the development due to the additional houses built in this area. Taylor Wimpey indicated that the Parish Council did not object to the additional houses which they do not, but the Parish had no indication that this would affect the mast income or prior notice that this change in the lease agreement would affect potential revenue. The Parish Council had received in writing confirmation from Stuart Dunbar-Dempsey that public open space of this size would normally attract a commuted sum of £256,000, but WCC considered that management of a woodland would reduce this figure to £137,500. This was fed back to Cllr Porter. Taylor Wimpey have indicated that as the Parish Councils preferred supplier of the boardwalk is £30,000 more than the original supplier. As such Taylor Wimpey expected any negotiated commuted sum to be reduced by £30,000. The Parish Council stated that they would not agree to a reduced sum on this basis, as the boardwalk originally offered was not fit for purpose in the council’s opinion. As management of the woodland is not within the scope of the pre-existing management company, Taylor Wimpey do not have a desire to set up a new agreement to manage the woodland. The Council reiterated that financial agreement was not the only matter to be resolved and other matters specifically detailed in the S106 have not been agreed such as the access, fencing and concerns over water from the site draining in the ditches and then overflowing into the SINC woodland. Cllr Porter will continue discussions with Taylor Wimpey P38/20 TO UPDATE ON THE PRE-SUBMISSION CONSULTATION ON THE VILLAGE DESIGN STATEMENT The Clerk has only received 5 replies to the pre-submission consultation of the village design statement.

    Colden Common VillageDesignStatement 2012 Colden Common VillageDesignStatement 2012 A Village Design Statement (VDS) is a Supplementary Planning docume nt that has been researched and developed by the local community. Its purpose is to help influence decisions on the design of new development. It is about managing change, not preventing it. A VDS should provide guidance on the distinctive features of the village which the local community values and wishes to see enhanced and protected. It provides additional guidance to assist local planners and applicants on how development may be undertaken so as to respect the character of the village. In order to be adopted by Winchester City Council (WCC), a VDS needs to supplement the Winchester District Local Plan Review 2006 (WDLPR) which has been prepared by Winchester City Council, together with Hampshire County Council as Highway Authority. The adopted policies of the 2006 Local Plan form part of the Development Plan for Winchester District, alongside the South East Plan 2009. The Development Plan forms the basis for decisions on land use planning affecting the area and a VDS needs to be compatible with its policies and with Government advice. The WDLPR 2006 identifies areas where future housing developments may be located. Within the Parish of Colden Common, the village of Colden Common has been defined within ‘a settlement boundary’ which specifies the area in which Contents new build is normally permissible. Page 2.

Local Boundary Commission for England Consultation Portal Page 1 of 1 Winchester District Personal Details: Name: Leigh Astur E-mail: Postcode: Organisation Name: Comment text: I believe that as Colden Common and Twyford share the same challenges and the benefits of sharing the same ward cannot be understated. Listed below is not an exhaustive list to demonstrate this · Speed and volume of traffic – both villages having the busy B3335/4 running through them and the associated problems with HGV Lorries. o Shared aims to provide safe cycle routes and pavement along with road · Aircraft noise · Rights of Way network between the Parishes · Poor public transport, none after 7pm · Shared services o Doctors surgery including a Patients Participation Group o Church services § The Benefice is Morestead, Colden Common, Owslebury and Twyford o Shared charities which the beneficiaries are both villages § Twyford and District Nursing trust an example o Youth and Community groups which service both parishes o Police neighbourhood team restructure aligns with a Twyford and Colden Common Ward o Sporting groups and associations which service both parishes Historically Twyford and Colden Common were one Parish. Despite today being two legal parishes, a very strong joint community identity remains. We believe that Twyford and Colden Common as one ward with two Ward Councillors is the most effective and efficient way of local democracy and best reflects the 3 main considerations as laid down in legislation.

  • Hampshire County Council (HCC)
    Hampshire County Council (HCC) Meon Valley Division County Councillor Roger Huxstep’s Annual Report 2016-17 February last year saw the launch of “Your Hampshire” (sign into www.hants.gov.uk/news/yourhampshire ) a substitute for the tri-annual ‘Hampshire Now’; keeping residents connected to the County Council’s latest news and activities. It is another way of maximising the opportunities provided by technology to deliver up to date information more quickly and easily to residents, supporting the digital strategy and at the same time making significant savings. Last May, the council welcomed Councillor Keith Chapman as our incoming Chairman. He is a keen champion of the County Music Service and has arranged many music events. The Youth Orchestra had an amazing tour of Hungary, even earning praise from the Foreign and Commonwealth Office. And, the Hampshire Music Education Hub made it to the last 7 of organisations recognised for success by the Music Education Council (MEC), for their Music Education Awards 2016 from an entry of 123 hubs across the country. Three new Directors have been appointed in the last year namely Mr Graham Allen now Director of Adults’ Health and Care; Mr Steve Crocker now Director of Children’s Services and Dr Sallie Bacon as Director of Public Health. All Directors have tough roles but we all know these officer appointments are critical for the services this County offers the people of Hampshire. You will know a number of Hampshire MPs have now joined the Government or promoted to higher ministerial rank; so, Hampshire is well represented in the Government.
