1.4 Comments submitted in questionnaire Submitted by residents through questionnaire (does not include stakeholder comments)

Support A good idea.

Allotments Concerned If houses were built with reasonable sized gardens there would be no need for allotments.

Close to homes, a community benefit.

There is a desperate lack of allotments to the west side of town.

Yes, put in several around the town.

Allotments can look untidy so put where appropriate. Going in the right direction - thanks.

Many more needed near homes due to smaller gardens I support the studies.

Once again all new features seem to be for new homes, not existing residents!

The old sand will not support growth of veg etc. Will you be putting in at least 3 ft. of top soil?

It is vital that allotments are close to the homes, in my view, but I hope you will not spend as much money as was spent to provide a few allotments earlier this year in Bordon.

Could try to incorporate some of them within gardens?

Why excitement about allotments? Will there be no gardens?

It was always wrong to propose allotments in the Inclosures. But they should not erode existing natural green land or playing fields in the town centre.

Request for further information / matter of detailed design

Only one new allotment on the map, where are the others?

-5-

The A325 Support Concerned I think this is key as transport acts as a facilitator to all other aspects.

To slow the traffic down will create a bottleneck.

Providing none of the work results in increased traffic on other local roads.

Not much point in bus lanes, unless there are intended to be a lot more buses, and is there actually a need for them and would they be used?

Cycle lane will damage roadside vegetation Real concern is rat runs to A3 e.g. Hollywater Road is already one and can only get worse.

The original idea of a pedestrian area and buses was much better.

Because the current situation is untenable at present and no-one is trying to solve the present traffic problem.

Build land bridges. Two major roads separating the town into three.

This will push traffic to smaller nearby roads!

Very important to retain traffic flow through the town.

Some traffic will bypass if too much management - where will it go?

Many crossings needed and car parking if you take away for Plaza.

What you're giving over the A325 to everyone but car owners The traffic will be overwhelming, particularly in Wrecclesham.

Prefer an actual by-pass to take through traffic out of Whitehill Bordon.

There must be no traffic through Oakhanger or near Shortheath Common I think that the A325 needs a lot of improvement to cope with extra traffic, and putting another road off the A325 would lead to a rat run.

This road will cut the old and new town in half as it does now The token issue of A325 traffic management raised in this exercise diverts attention from the massive junction and capacity improvements already anticipated to deal with the predicted increase. Achieving any reduction, let alone the minimum 50% target is impossible.

Need to get through traffic past Whitehill Bordon quickly.

-6-

Concerned about Bakers Corner and more traffic through Oakhanger.

Managing the A325 deflects attention in the context of projected ÂŁ55m going into road schemes to accommodate massive increased and "bypass" traffic.

Request for further information / matter of detailed design

I feel that the changes outlined above highlight the fact that this project can continue to be amended and adapted as more research, information and local response becomes available.

Traffic already bad at peak in town especially now it's a diversion from A3 tunnel, how would it cope and where will extra lanes go?

What about the B3004 which will be overcrowded!

Consider impact of major road closures e.g. A3 What studies have been made about additional traffic in the surrounding villages? Suggest a properly managed census of such.

Would this mean more traffic hold-ups and using Hogmoor Road as a bypass?

There will be massive disruption while work is going on

-7-

Powering the town Support Concerned Don't want biomass energy.

A central biomass energy centre would be an exemplar proposal.

Much more sensible idea

Surely this will lead to more traffic movements and general air pollution!

Good idea to more as will be more resilient to problems.

We have just fought for an anaerobic digester in our village As long as they are not in sensitive areas.

There must be no wind turbines as these will damage or kill birds?

How can you criticise a solution without having another readily available solution as an alternative?

Boiler on Louisburg Barracks would add pollution to the SPA, so should take some away from it.

No wind farm please Local biomass energy must be more expensive to build Biomass is flawed, small house units and efficient insulation.

Promising to look at "alternative energy centres" is meaningless without some idea of detail.

Request for further information / matter of detailed design

Will need to know more about the subject.

Will this be more expensive?

-8-

New town park Support Concerned I support this but the entire existing sports field in this area off Budds Will need proper management.

Lane and Station Road should be retained.

This is a good idea in principle but it could be a dumping ground for a Much need as the relief road will cut off the area in between that and lot of unpleasant things? the A325.

Again, if this includes good agricultural land then I feel genuine concern for locally produced crops/animals.

As long as it is not in a sensitive area.

Park seems tacked on and too far from existing town The town is very short of parkland open space.

Should be as large as possible.

Location is critical, must not affect local housing.

People want a park IN the town centre, not "within easy reach" of itespecially where its location is left open, leading to speculation that it means Standford Grange Farm or some other equally unwelcome location.

Request for further information / matter of detailed design

Why does a country town need another park?

Is this part of the SANG provision needed to justify 4000 homes?

Will there be paths, flowerbeds etc for less agile/ambient citizens to enjoy?

When will we know more of this?

-9-

Support Good idea, the more pedestrian ways the better.

Important to have focal point.

Public plaza Concerned The town square should be placed in the Prince Phillip barracks area as originally planned enabling traffic to continue to use the A325. This is a bad idea!

Only if it is used on a regular basis.

Is this to replace the one already built by the Community Centre?

If A325 is re-routed otherwise the road will be much too busy to get across safely.

I have envisaged a plaza as an area with roads spreading out from/feeding from four corners, not off to one side of a road.

A plaza should be in the middle of town.

Concerned ref parking and traffic.

Pointless tokenism. Better to concentrate on the existing public realm to make the town look more attractive.

Request for further information / matter of detailed design

Frisby corner is unbelievably ugly. Get rid of the betting shop for starters. It is not a good advertisement for Bordon.

The public plaza is at Forest Centre isn't it? Does anything happen there?

- 10 -

Support This needs to be done honestly.

Protected green spaces Concerned Is this to include Standford Grange Farm? I am concerned about the use of good agricultural land for Eco-town purposes.

Facilities for children, designed so they are safe

It is very important to limit the damage to environment.

Building 4000 homes will damage the surrounding heath land especially because of access for Shipwrights Way, cycle paths, SANG and proposals in the sports assessment. This will destroy the trees which help keep the air cleaner in this pollution black-spot.

They should be properly protected by giving them to organisations such as National Trust.

Retain Standford Grange Farm as a working farm - locally produced food.

It is very important to limit the damage to the environment.

Do not allow dogs in houses

Yes, more green spaces needed, BUT Alexandra Park is not a new one.

Standford Grange Farm- A major problem with this is that the livestock are moved around the farm to allow the pasture to recover. If people and their dogs are using these areas they are not recovering. For one experienced in grazing animals and managing the land this is absolute madness. What happened to sustainability?

They should be properly protected by giving them to an organisation such as the National Trust

Good idea.

A must do.

Request for further information / matter of detailed design

Need to consider community first. Extend road via old rail track to outskirts of Whitehill.

- 11 -

Support This is a good idea, but will it come off?

New water feature Concerned Leave it alone

Anything to make the town look more attractive.

It would be useful if this could be enclosed as a reservoir to serve the new town.

The new access road needs to be re-routed away from heathland in Viking Park and Hogmoor Inclosure and re-routed away from existing Oxney Stream watercourse.

Existing fauna that use this stream will be destroyed

Ponds attract more wildlife and children (supervised), so a big plus.

From my experience of Harrow area this would be an attractive idea.

Kingfishers have been seen at Oxney Drain. They are unlikely to visit a town water feature.

New water feature - not important.

Trying to redirect Oxney Drain which feeds into the River Wey is this not trying to mess with nature? Would it not be better to create a water feature that would flow into the Oxney Drain and hence the river Wey, otherwise would this mass of water become stagnant also where you want this is by the railway line, water features and rails does not work.

Request for further information / matter of detailed design It would need to have enough water running through it to make it something more than a ditch.

Please make sure wheelchair/pushchair friendly.

Needs to be something that won't get vandalised, is easy to maintain, and won't attract litter.

- 12 -

BOSC Concerned A 400 or 500m buffer zone is futile if a road invites traffic and dog walkers.

The existing sports club should be improved for all the Bordon area to use.

Sports Club - No woodland should be used.

Support I agree, too many new houses.

Retain large amount of woodland - Spotted flycatcher seen here.

They are becoming really scarce.

Reduce houses, keep more woods and grounds.

All green space at BOSC should remain

Good idea, existing sports facilities very limited.

Great improvement needs the east side adding to it.

Must be retained, used by all ages.

Needs to be revamped and remind people that it is there.

Sports Club - An absolute must.

Request for further information / matter of detailed design

How will new residents and BOSC members be prevented from ratrunning across Shortheath Common? Until this problem is resolved there should be no development near BOSC.

- 13 -

Train Station Support

Concerned I do not believe that the proposed rail link is feasible and the figures in the masterplan are contradictory. If the concept is to provide local employment, then it does not make sense to provide an ADDITIONAL form of transport that would require 35 to 40% of an expanded working population to commute outside of the town in order to pay its way. I also understand that the future of Bentley Station is in doubt.

The proposed railway stations are both by schools one proposed where building 84N is at the moment and Bordon Infant and Junior Schools. Would this not cause health issues and congestion in the morning? The one by Bordon Infant and Junior Schools is where the map shows the new town centre is to go.

Officers’ Response: We are awaiting the outcome of the GRIP 3 stage rail feasibility study. It will provide further assessment of the Bordon-Bentley- London Waterloo through heavy rail route. The location of the proposed rail station will remain indicative until such time. The revised masterplan will safeguard the disused rail corridor towards Bentley to allow for its delivery in the future.

General Comments Comments

Officers’ Response

Will access to these places and spaces be supported by the development of appropriate specialist facilities such as Changing Places Toilets? It would be a shame for this to be a missed opportunity within such an innovative, forward thinking and modern development. If a sustainable community and access to opportunities for local people is key to the success of this development then it is imperative that anybody with severe and / or complex health and mobility issues is afforded the same opportunities as everybody else to benefit from these planned improvements. I wish you all the best for such an exciting project.

Object to scope of this consultation. Wrong and manipulative to focus on details where the principal issue is harm to well being of people, habitats, ecology and carbon generation arising from excessive development in an unsustainable location mainly on existing green space rather than brownfield land.

Yes. The provision for supporting visitor’s facilities and public realm improvements are part of the Green Infrastructure Strategy. The Eco-town masterplan is committed towards access and mobility friendly public facilities.

As demonstrated by the limited issues, form and layout of this page, the consultation is literally a "tick box" exercise, deliberately steered away from the one issue which matters most to most people- the impact of doubling or near doubling the population on a limited, mainly green land area. The given alternative to "support" is "concern," not "object, which speaks for itself.

"Support" is clearly the soft option by the nature of the carefully selected issues.

Its objective is once again to fool the CLG and Ministers into believing that the Council's scheme has community support or at least acquiescence, where the opposite has always been true.

Unless the required new jobs and transport infrastructure precede significant housebuilding it must be inherently unsustainable because it will result in an even greater proportion of the labour force out-commuting and permanent traffic overload.

The scope of the consultation is appropriate for this stage of the project. It will be used to gain feedback on the specific questions.

Qualitative feedback about the proposed changes is noted for the next stage when detailed designs will be drawn up.

The proposed development is principally on the MoD land and will help regeneration of Whitehill Bordon after the MoD vacation. Additional land is required to support necessary infrastructure, improvements to the existing facilities and deliver high quality Eco-town standards.

Phasing of delivery is very important and the masterplan states the need for infrastructure in advance and for the town centre and Louisburg to come forward at the earliest opportunity.

It is difficult to predict exact travel patterns in the future.

The Eco-town masterplan proposals and policies in the emerging Joint Core Strategy provide one new job per new dwelling. It is expected that this will result in reducing

- 15 -

Retrofitting existing houses as originally promised ("One Green Town") is unachievable, but abandonment has been concealed. An "us and them" New Town division is bound to result, with different standards, layouts and much higher densities west of the A235 and no change east of it.

Even building new houses to Zero carbon/Passive Haus standard is being progressively eroded by government policy and because there will be insufficient funding to subsidise otherwise unviable commercial house building. Inevitably there must be a drift towards cheap mass conventional house building simply in order to achieve target housing numbers.

With little local housing demand, thousands of new people would have to migrate from their existing communities, where they might prefer to stay. That proportion requiring social housing people would come under undue duress to relocate.

The promised Referendum on this question should take place before any of these meetings. If the Council used "Survey Monkey" to put the key question simply some confidence in consultation might be restored. As promoter and de facto judge and jury, the Council has effectively begun implementing its masterplan in advance of any EIP test even a sound evidence base. This should be properly seen as an abuse of power. The gross distortion of the Government's Localism Agenda deserves independent scrutiny.

The plan envisages 7,000 new jobs. Assuming an average of 10 people per enterprise, we would need 700 new businesses. This is impractical. However, we should be clever about this and build on the history of involvement with the military. Wars in future will be fought increasingly by remote and automated devices - we already have smart bombs, guided missiles and remote controlled aircraft. Bordon has the opportunity to develop businesses in this area, but it will need to create an environment which would attract such businesses. Hence the need to create an environment that is better than elsewhere not just a carbon copy of other developments.

The concept of more public transport for internal movement is more attractive, but why limit it to buses? If we look at the whole concept holistically, then we really need to consider Whitehill/Bordon as a destination town. This means not

the need to travel outside the town.

Retrofitting of the existing homes is part of the masterplan. More than 850 residents have received free loft and cavity wall insulation within the last year. The insulation will help save money on fuel bills as well as reducing carbon emissions.

The principle of achieving zero carbon and high standards of Code for Sustainable Homes is included in the Joint Core Strategy. It will be tested through the examination in the summer 2012. Monitoring and policy compliance will ensure that such standards are achieved in the future developments.

The district wide strategic housing needs assessment and the current waiting list indicates that there is a need for additional affordable housing in the District and in the Eco-town Policy Zone.

The masterplan has not been implemented. It is being updated as the evidence base for the Core strategy to support Examination in Public (EIP). The neighbourhood engagement carried out is in accordance with the emerging planning and localism changes.

The decision on the referendum is that of East Hampshire District Council.

Our approach to future business and attracting investment is set out in the Economic Development and Employment Strategy. The comments will be fed into the ongoing work led by the Economic Development Specialist Group.

The target is to create 5,500 jobs.

The defence sector is a possible source of jobs – with potential links to Farnborough.

We are also looking at creating new business space at Louisburg Barracks.

Our Emerging Transport Strategy (September 2011) has a holistic approach to the future transport provision.

Various modes of transport and their integration is

just opportunities for cutting edge business, attractive housing and social facilities but exciting means of getting to the town and travelling within it. Other localities around the world are installing or looking at innovative forms of public transport i.e. monorail or pod transport. Let us think differently and make Whitehill/Bordon an area that makes people want to visit.

supported by the emerging strategy. We continue to explore innovative means of sustainable transport. New bus routes and bus stops are part of the initial work.

Residential areas should take their concept from garden cities such as Letchworth and Welwyn Garden City. We don't want a grid system: it is soulless.

This development should have radial roads leading to the new town centre so that you have a vista of the centre as you walk towards it. Roads should be planned as avenues i.e. with green spaces and trees so that children can play outside and parents can see them.

The road network and plot geometry shown on the current masterplan is indicative. Typical road sections considered in the masterplan have trees and green spaces alongside the roads.

The planned residential densities are too high. The UK has the highest densities of any residential areas in the world except for Korea. Our room spaces are also less than in Europe. These densities lead to social and health problems and poor family communication. This view is supported by RIBA and the Institute of Horticulture. All dwellings should have a garden or access to horticultural space.

Relief Road. Indicative route is badly thought out. The road should be to the west, otherwise it will be a barrier to those in the western area of proposed housing development.

With the emergency services closing down and it takes 40 minutes to get to Hospital would it not be better for the council to speak to the emergency services to see about keeping the police station and if possible opening an ambulance station if the population is to grow bigger than Alton and Petersfield?

The HRA suggests that the proposed relief road will have an inverse impact on how people can access and have full use of all the proposed SANGS. It still seems as if the team are banging their heads on a brick, or eco wall' trying to squeeze too much out of the very limited amount of land available for SANGS. This so-called survey is a travesty that insults the intelligence of residents. It seems we can 'support' an issue or be 'concerned' about it but we are not allowed to be 'against'. The Council has clearly made up its mind that this

We note the comment on the room sizes. It is too early in the masterplan to prescribe such guidance. The appropriate national guidance will be used at the time of development. The densities across the masterplan area vary from 15 du/ ha to 70 du / ha with an average similar to that of typical of the area. Detailed comments are noted and will be considered as part of the emerging Neighbourhood Quality Charter.

The alignment of the inner relief road is indicative and subject to further feasibility work.

We are in discussion with the emergency services and will continue to review the provision in light of the recent changes announced. There is provision in the current masterplan to allow for new facilities to be provided near the new town centre.

The Community Facilities and Amenities Specialist Group is considering such facilities as part of its work plan.

The Habitats Regulations Assessment confirms that subject to appropriate avoidance and mitigation in place, the area can support up to 4,000 new homes. The alignment of the inner relief road is indicative and will be reviewed in response to the SANG access.

The purpose of the questionnaire was to receive qualitative and quantitative feedback on the proposed changes to the masterplan. It also allowed a respondent

disaster is to be foisted upon the people of Whitehill-Bordon and surrounding villages whatever they think. Saying 'No' is not an option. None of the councillors given responsibility for driving this project forward represents a ward in Whitehill-Bordon and it's easy to see why; they don't want these houses in the twee market towns of Petersfield, Alton or Grayshott so let's dump them on Whitehill-Bordon. The 'eco' label is a pathetic smokescreen that fools no-one.

to write any additional comments.

Be warned, build this disaster at your peril, and go down in history as the people who blighted a pleasant, semi-rural area for the most selfish of reasons.

Bill Wain - Whitehill Bordon Town Partnership;

The project is led by the Delivery Board and has local representation by: Cllr Adam Carew - Whitehill Town Council;

Cllr Philip Drury - East Hampshire District Council.

All these representatives live in the area.

I think that many of these plans are brilliant ideas to build up the town as well as the community to bring more people into are community and make this town a lot more pleasant with attractive water feature and other exciting stuff. As well as bringing in more customers for the local businesses in this area as well as the new developing shops. Also I do think you should develop something that the younger generation should enjoy so that will keep them off the streets into a safer environment (e.g.) bowling alley or a small arts and craft program centre or something they could really get involved with.

The regeneration of Whitehill Bordon is one of the priorities for East Hampshire District Council and the current Leader of the Council is keen to work with the community and the locally elected members to deliver it.

The masterplan proposal is for the youth facilities to be provided as part of community hubs. Commercial leisure is proposed near the new town centre.

Comments noted. The Community Facilities and Amenities Specialist Group is considering provision for the younger generation as part of its work plan.

I think it is rather lovely
