Number of Summary of Comments comments General Comments Use brownfield sites first 240 In a new settlement - Fleet/Church Crookham over-built 124 SHMA is out of date, jobs forecast too high so remove 2000 for Hart's need for housing 102 Mixed with all other developments, avoid segregation 67 Where there is an existing community/close to Fleet to take advantage of transport & infrastructure 64 Important to consider infrastructure 55 Disperse new housing across area, reducing density 30 Complete range of homes needs to be built, not only large houses 28 Proportion of any new development should be for specialist groups 24 Why is Hart absorbing extra building from Surrey and other locations?/should not have to 20 Needs to be balanced and considered regarding location for wider community including specialist groups 20 Build higher-rise/flats wherever possible to minimise sprawl 15 All of these groups should be considered/included with their special needs 15 Proper research needed at local level rather than estimates based on statistics, consult with these groups to understand needs 13 Housing in Hart is too expensive for first time buyers and military families 9 New builds should be on or near public transport routes 9 Area is saturated, we do not need or want any further homes 8 Better use of military land inc. RAF Odiham 7 No more homes on flood plains or land adjacent to areas susceptible to flooding 5 Understanding of demographic is key to considering location 5 Build eco homes, zero carbon, use good quality energy efficient materials 5 Build more houses, not only retirement homes 5 Build more council houses 4 Locate affordable and other specialist houses in clusters 4 Fleet should not be default option/is too overcrowded 4 Offer prebuilt homes to speed up construction time and reduce costs 4 Not new development at Winchfield, costs don't stack up and ignorance of infrastructure requirements 4 Page 3 of 108 Need to measure how many 1 & 2-bed properties and for older people have been built or permitted already 4 Allocate sites of sufficient size to secure such provision 3 All groups have different needs and cannot be integrated on one large development 3 Most locations should be considered
