Issue details

To inform Test Valley Borough Council:

i)        That New Forest District Council consider modification TVBC/MM/5/2 should be amended to read:

          “The Council has worked with other PUSH authorities to ensure a consistent evidence based approach in South Hampshire.  For the rest of Test Valley, the SHMA takes account of the housing market within which it is located.  The proposed housing requirement figures do not rely upon any neighbouring authorities to meet the Borough’s own housing need.  However in future it may be necessary for further work with neighbouring authorities to be undertaken to address objectively assessed needs of the wider housing market areas.

And

ii)       This Council would welcome closer working on cross-boundary issues, including the work on appropriate mitigation measures to address recreational impacts on the New Forest European nature conservation sites.
