  • NFNPA Matter 2
    New Forest National Park Local Plan 2016 – 2036 Examination Statement – New Forest National Park Authority Matter 2 – Duty to Co-operate Issue – Whether the Authority has complied with the duty to co-operate in the preparation of the Local Plan? General 2.1 What strategic, cross-border matters have arisen through the preparation of the Local Plan? 1. In response to the Localism Act 2011 (CD34) and the requirement for planning authorities to engage constructively and on an on-going basis on strategic matters, the Authority has prepared a Duty to Co-operate Statement (CD19). This sets out the work done in response to the requirements of the duty. 2. Section 5 of CD19 summarises the co-operation on cross-boundary matters that has gone into the preparation of the Submission draft Local Plan since the review commenced in 2015. As well as the four stages of formal consultation, liaison has taken place through the Authority’s Local Plan Working Groups in 2016; regular officer and member liaison meetings; and the duty to co-operate discussions initiated with neighbouring authorities in the three Housing Market Areas of Southampton, Bournemouth / Poole and Salisbury by the National Park Authority and New Forest District Council in summer 2017. 3. From the liaison that has taken place since the Local Plan review commenced in summer 2015, three main strategic issues that require cross-boundary co- operation have been identified. These relate to: (i) the provision of housing to meet identified needs; (ii) habitat mitigation measures to ensure that the planned level of development in the area does not affect the integrity of the protected habitats of the New Forest (including the coastline); and (iii) the former Fawley Power Station site, which is a strategically important development site requiring cross boundary working and co-operation between the National Park Authority and New Forest District Council.

  • Hampshire Top Ten Things You Never Knew
    Ten things you never knew about Hampshire Famous for any number of reasons, Hampshire is also regarded as the birthplace of modern fly-fishing, wind-surfing and bird-watching. But here’s our list of Top 10 Things You Never Knew about the county… 1. Winchester - once King Alfred’s capital, and the venue for the marriage of Queen Mary I to King Philip II of Spain – has been crowned the best place to live in Britain by The Sunday Times. The cathedral city inspired John Keats to write his famous Ode To Autumn in 1819. Today, the ancient capital includes restaurants such as Chesil Rectory and Michelin-starred Black Rat. 2. Leckford Estate in the Test Valley was purchased by John Spedan Lewis in 1929, and has been farmed for over 87 years. Home to The Waitrose Farm, it’s a place where visitors will find a fabulous farm shop, café, a garden nursery in nearby Longstock, and see one of the finest water gardens in the world. Leckford village itself comprises around 40 houses and cottages, which are occupied by present or retired employees of the John Lewis Partnership, and are painted in the partnership colours of green and white. 3. 2017 will see the county mark the 200th anniversary of the death of Jane Austen. Less well-known is the fact that 50 years later, Sweet Fanny Adams was brutally murdered by solicitor's clerk Frederick Baker in nearby Alton. A couple of years later, new rations of tinned mutton - introduced to sailors in Portsmouth - failed to impress the seamen, who suggested it might even be the butchered remains of poor Fanny Adams.

  • Hythe and Dibden Neighbourh
    1 December 2015 Designating the Hythe & Dibden Neighbourhood Area NEW FOREST NATIONAL PARK AUTHORITY REPORT TO THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR STRATEGY & PLANNING AND CHAIR OF PLANNING DEVELOPMENT CONTROL COMMITTEE (PDCC) DESIGNATING THE HYTHE & DIBDEN NEIGHBOURHOOD AREA AS IT RELATES TO THE AREA WITHIN THE NEW FOREST NATIONAL PARK Report by: David lllsley, Policy Manager 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 Neighbourhood Plans were introduced by the Localism Act 2011 to give communities direct power to develop a shared vision for their neighbourhood and shape the development of their local area. Neighbourhood Plans are statutory documents that, once adopted, form part of the 'development plan' for the area. As the New Forest is a parished area, Neighbourhood Plans can be undertaken by parish or town councils if they chose to prepare one. The National Park Authority has a role in supporting communities in preparing a Neighbourhood Plan by giving advice and assistance to the town/parish council. 1.2 Neighbourhood planning is not a legal requirement, but a right which communities in England can chose to use. Under the relevant Neighbourhood Planning Regulations, in order to start the formal process of preparing a Neighbourhood Plan a town/parish council first makes an application to the local planning authority for the designation of the area that their Neighbourhood Plan will cover (Regulation 6). 2. AREA APPLICATION BY HYTHE & DIBDEN PARISH COUNCIL 2.1 In a letter dated 15 July 2015 (Appendix B), Hythe & Dibden Parish Council applied to New Forest District Council and the New Forest National Park Authority - as the Parish includes land within both the boundary of the District (circa 75% of the land area of the parish) and the National Park (25% of the land area of the parish) - for the area of their proposed Neighbourhood Plan to cover the whole of the parish.
