INTRODUCTION Ringwood Town Council (RTC) has engaged Oneill Homer (OH) to support the Project Steering Group (PSG) in the production of the first Ringwood Neighbourhood Plan (RNP). Three sessions took place with the ‘shadow’ PSG between September and November 2020 to enable the PSG to determine whether it wished to proceed with the Neighbourhood Plan project. On the 8th January 2021, RTC approved the recommendation of the ‘shadow’ PSG to proceed with the RNP to address a small number of policy areas and to seek designation of the neighbourhood plan coincident with the Ringwood Parish Boundary. 2. DEFINING A VISION AND GENERATING POLICY IDEAS The RNP needs to establish a vision of the town in 2050 for how the town can successfully address both present issues and how it may become more self-sustaining and resilient as a significant market town in the face of uncertain times ahead. Although the RNP itself will have a shorter plan period to coincide with the recently adopted New Forest District and New Forest National Park Authority Local Plans, it will help to think about and to start planning for the longer term now. It is unfortunate that the project is coming about at a time after many key decisions have been made in respect of housing growth. In that light, it will be important to consider the implication of this growth once the schemes are built and occupied. This does not need to be agreed now – although the pros and cons are probably known if not yet precisely quantifiable – but can be once other work is completed. The broad policy ideas recommended by the PSG to the RTC were as follows: Town Centre – setting out a vision for the town centre as to how it should be developed and what uses would be acceptable, and looking at unlocking key sites such as the Old Town Hall and Social Club and “de-risking” their development. Design and Heritage – influencing the design of new homes and public open spaces to ensure quality development, with the potential to shape the details of at least one of the allocated strategic sites. This might also include design coding to manage the quality of infill and other schemes Climate Change – to deliver impactful climate change actions through raising the standard of design of development and green infrastructure to improve environmental outcomes.
