EHDC has proposed three strategies after last year's consultation process

The future of the Whitehill and Bordon ‘eco-town’ bid was thrown into doubt before Christmas, as one of the companies involved in building the new army camp in Wales withdrew from the project.  The army is due to leave Whitehill and Bordon in 2013, leaving tracts of land open to possible redevelopment. 05/01/09

WANTED - INTERESTED LOCAL PEOPLE WHO CARE ABOUT THE FUTURE

These are our communities and our families' future, so why don't you get involved ?  Some of us have been working hard to stop in-appropriate over-development in Four Marks, Medstead & Chawton. We don't want to become small towns with a greatly increased population, but yet no facilities or infrastructure. We can only be effective in fighting in-appropriate planning applications being made in Four Marks, Medstead & Chawton by everyone working together, and using objective planning arguments - so far in support of EHDC Planning Department we have great success, including FOUR Developer Appeals dismissed by National Planning Inspectors in 2007.

F4FM objects (and will continue to object) to inappropriate & high density developments, which our village infrastructure cannot support. We do (and will) support well-designed & affordable developments that meet the needs of our community and are in line with government, regional, county, district and parish Development Plans. We support all efforts to generate local employment and economic growth for our community.
