Fight 4 Four Marks

Saturday 15th August 2009

Reserve Site, North of Brislands Lane

Local Plan Approved Reserve Site, North of Brislands Lane

As this is a Reserve Site in the adopted EHDC Local Plan, we have no choice about development taking place at some time in the future - so unfortunately we cannot object to it as an overall plan, only the details.

This is only in a very early pre-Planning Stage. Although there may have been pre- application discussions (developers in consultation with EHDC, which is normal practice), there is no actual planning application made so far.

An EHDC Development Brief for developers is out for public consultation until 9th October. The Development Brief is prepared as additional planning guidance and sets out the way EHDC wishes to see the site developed with an emphasis on high quality and sustainable development. It will provide the basis on which planning applications can be submitted and assessed.

During the Brief's consultation period anyone can make their views known about the Development Brief itself by 9th October 2009. Comments or questions can be made to either Four Marks Parish Council at their public open meeting on 9th September in the Village Hall at 19:30, or direct to EHDC on their web site under Planning or to us at Fight4FourMarks.

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.
