The Council's policy is to double the size of Whitehill-Bordon whether or not it is selected as an eco-town. We think the 'consultation' paper was deliberately biased to promote Option 3. But with only 130 responses, the Council cannot claim public support.
The Council's preferred Option 3 (prepared by MoD Defence Estates) is shown on the map below. Compare with the Masterplanners drawing, now on the STOP PRESS page, but thought to have been delayed due to the Council's dissatisfaction with some of the draft content. Note that the land now allocated for housing is considerably greater than the brownfield land originally earmarked.
Option 1, the preferred choice of people who participated in previous consultations, envisages development of up to 2000 houses, avoiding any development on greenfield land.
