Fareham LDF
Annual Monitoring Report
December 2011
Executive Summary
i.
This is the seventh Annual Monitoring Report (AMR) to be produced by Fareham Borough
Council and the first AMR following adoption of the Fareham Borough Core Strategy. The
AMR forms part of the Fareham Local Development Framework (LDF) and covers the
period 1 April 2010 to 31 March 2011, and considers progress of the LDF up until the
publication of this AMR in December 2011.
ii.
The Localism Bill removes the requirement to submit the AMR to the Secretary of State.
However, until the Bill is enacted this requirement will remain. Previous editions of the
AMR have been required to report on a number of Core Output Indicators (Core Output
Indicators). Core Output Indicators were designed by central government as part of the
monitoring framework to achieve a consistent approach to data collection across the
national, regional and local level. A ministerial letter of 30 March 2011, sent to Local
Authority Chief Planning Officers, removed the requirement to report on Core Output
Indicators and withdrew guidance on local plan monitoring. Thus, it is now for individual
local authorities to determine what to include in their monitoring reports, providing they
are prepared in accordance with relevant UK and EU legislation.
iii.
Chapter 7 of the Core Strategy provides an indicative monitoring framework in recognition
of the importance of retaining an effective monitoring system. Performance measured
against Core Output Indicators will still be reported where it is considered to be relevant to
the effective monitoring of Core Strategy Policies. The AMR is critical in the
understanding of the effect and impact of planning policies in the Borough once they are
adopted.
iv.
This AMR covers four key areas:
 Progress of all Local Development Documents (LDDs) and any milestones that
have been reached against the timetable in the Local Development Scheme (LDS)
 Analysis of individual development plan policies (Core Strategy & 'saved' Local
Plan Review policies;
 Housing monitoring and supply - providing the most up to date housing land supply
for the Borough and setting out housing completions for the past year; and
 Employment & Retail floorspace monitoring - setting out the employment and retail
floorspace completions for the monitoring year.
A summary of these sections of the report are provided below.
Progress On Local Development Documents
v.
The Development Plan Documents (DPDs) contained in the 2011 Local Development
Scheme (LDS) are in part meeting the milestones indicated in the LDS. Fareham's Core
Strategy was adopted a month earlier than anticipated. The Fareham Town Centre Area

Fareham LDF
Annual Monitoring Report
December 2011
Action Plan is on track to meet the milestones as indicated in the LDS. However the North
of Fareham Strategic Development Area (SDA) Area Action Plan and the Site Allocations
& Development Management DPD timetables require extension through a review of the
LDS.
vi.
The Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) for the Coldeast Site was adopted in
October 2011 and the SPD for the Daedalus Site has been put on hold following the
designation of the site as an Enterprise Zone.
vii.
Work has commenced on the preparation of a charging schedule for the Community
Infrastructure Levy.
Policy Analysis
viii.
With the use of indicators1, the saved policy analysis demonstrates how the majority of
current local plan policies are working effectively, particularly through the use of
development control in pre-application and decision-making processes.
ix.
The analysis shows how a number of policies, particularly Local Plan policies, cannot be
successfully measured through the use of Core or Local Indicators. This raises the issue
that future policies should aim to be written in such a manner that they can be assessed
in quantifiable terms. Furthermore, a system must be in place to continually collect and
assess data in order to provide an effective method of policy analysis.
x.
This analysis is important and in highlighting policies (or parts of policies) that require
revision or deletion in order to reflect current and changing circumstances that the
Borough faces. Chapter 6 of this AMR sets out such recommendations.
Housing Monitoring and Supply
xi.
As required under The Town and Country Planning (Local Development (England)
Regulation 2004 (as amended), Local Planning Authorities must report on annual housing
delivery as part of the AMR. This AMR also provides an update to the November 2011
Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment housing supply figures, taking into
account completions and new permissions only during the monitoring period.
xii.
During the 2010/11 year Fareham has delivered 364 dwellings. Chapter 3 demonstrates
that there is an adequate five year housing land supply in the Borough (outside the North
of Fareham SDA) for the period of 2011/12 - 2015/16 with a target of 799 dwellings and a
supply of 1,373 deliverable dwellings. Therefore the supply exceeds the target by 574
dwellings which equates to (72%) percent beyond the required five year housing land
supply. The sites which form this supply are listed in Appendix 4.
xiii.
It is anticipated that, assuming normal market conditions, the Borough (outside of the
North of Fareham SDA) will meet the required 3,729 dwellings toward the beginning of the
2018/19 monitoring year. However, projected housing delivery will continue to the end of
the plan period to 2025/26, through this period the trajectory shows that a further 476
dwellings will be delivered over and above the minimum target.

Annual Monitoring Report
December 2011
The Core Strategy trajectory for the North of Fareham SDA anticipates that the first
dwellings will be delivered at the site in 2014/15, with around 5,350 dwellings completed
by the end of the Core Strategy plan period and development continuing until 2031.
Recommendations for improved policy monitoring
xv.
Chapter 6 sets out the recommendations regarding current monitoring processes and
potential improvements to data capture mechanisms. The relevant polices addressed
under this section are as follows:
CS15 Sustainable Development and Climate Change
CS16 Renewable Energy
CS17 High Quality Design
CS20 Infrastructure and Developer Contributions
CS4 Green Infrastructure, Biodiversity and Geological Conservation
CS21 Protection and Provision of Open Space

Introduction
PURPOSE & AIM OF THE ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT
1.1
This is the seventh Annual Monitoring Report (AMR) produced by Fareham Borough
Council covering the monitoring period, 1st April 2010 to 31st March 2011. It forms part of
the Fareham Local Development Framework (LDF) reporting upon progress of the LDF
up until publication of this AMR and the effectives of LDF policies. Where data is not
available for this period, the recommendations section (Chapter 5) clearly identifies the
period for which data is available and/or how this data will be secured for future AMRs.
1.2
The purpose and aim of this AMR is to:
1.3

Report progress of Local Development Documents in relation to the timetable
and key milestones established in the Fareham Local Development Scheme
(LDS);

Update the five year housing land supply position and set out the housing
trajectory for housing outside of the North of Fareham Strategic Development
Area (SDA) and at the SDA.

Report progress on current (‘saved’) policies in the Fareham Local Plan
Review (2000) and the polices contained within the Core Strategy, where
appropriate
Previous editions of the AMR have been required to report on a number of Core Output
Indicators. Core Output Indicators were designed as part of the monitoring framework to
achieve a consistent approach to data collection across the regional and local level.
However, the ministerial letter of 30 March 2011, sent to Local Authority Chief Planning
Officers, removed the requirement to report on Core Output Indicators and withdrew the
following guidance on local plan monitoring:
Local Development Framework Monitoring: A Good Practice Guide (ODPM, 2005),
 Annual Monitoring Report FAQs and Emerging Best Practice 2004-05 (ODPM,
2006),
 Regional Spatial Strategy and Local Development Framework: Core Output
Indicators - Update 2/2008 (CLG, 2008).
1.4
It will now be for individual councils to determine what to include in their monitoring
reports, providing they are prepared in accordance with relevant UK and EU legislation.
In line with provisions contained within Town and Country Planning (Local Development)
(England) Regulations 2004, Local Planning Authorities are still required to report on the
following:

Annual Monitoring Report
December 2011

The progress of DPD production against the LDS timetable and any suggested
associated amendments.

Where an authority is not implementing a policy specified in the development
plan, the annual report must identify that policy and include reasons why the
authority is not implementing the policy; the steps (if any) that the authority intend
to take to secure that the policy is implemented; and whether the authority intend
to prepare a DPD or a revision of the DPD (as the case may be) to replace or
amend the policy.

Specify the number of net additional dwellings built in the authority’s area.
Chapter 7 of The Core Strategy provides an indicative monitoring framework in
recognition of the importance of retaining an effective monitoring system. This
framework includes a number of the Core Output indicators contained in the withdrawn
guidance listed above. Performance measured against Core Output Indicators will still
be reported where it is considered to be relevant to the effective monitoring of LDF
Policies.
RELATED VISIONS & OBJECTIVES
1.6
The Fareham LDF aims to adopt an integrated approach to monitoring. The AMR has
regard to the vision and objectives of related Council strategies and plans which have
been taken into consideration in the preparation of the Core Strategy.
1.7
The Council's Corporate Strategy (2011) describes Fareham as, ‘Fareham - the
prosperous, safe and attractive place to live and work'. The Strategy is updated annually
by the Council and is guided by following corporate priorities:
 To protect and enhance the environment.
 To maintain and extend prosperity.
 To ensure that Fareham remains a safe and healthy place to live and work.
 To provide a reasonable range of leisure opportunities for health and fun.
 To work with our key partners to enable and support a balanced housing.
market.
 To build strong and inclusive communities.
 To be a dynamic, prudent and progressive council.
1.8
Fareham's Core Strategy identifies the Borough's development needs and how they will
be met up to 2026 is a key part of the LDF. The Core Strategy was adopted by the
Council on 4 August 2011 following public examination of the plan by an independent
planning inspector from the Planning Inspectorate.
FAREHAM IN CONTEXT
Physical Environment
1.9
Fareham lies on the Solent coastline between the cities of Portsmouth and
Southampton, covering an area of almost 30 square miles. Rapid development has
occurred over the past 50 years, although approximately 60% of the Borough remains as
countryside. The Southern and Western boundaries of the Borough are formed by the

Fareham LDF
Annual Monitoring Report
December 2011
Solent and River Hamble, respectively, which are internationally recognised for their
environmental and recreational value. The special character of the Borough’s older
settlements is recognised by conservation area designations.
Population
1.10
Hampshire County Council's Small Area Population Forecast 2010 2 stated a resident
population of 110,995. The figures are the best projections available as at April 1st 2010
on a site by site basis taking account of the current market conditions. This is an
increase of 3,018 since the 2001 Census (107,997). In 2001 the average age of
residents in Fareham was 40. The retired population is expected to increase by 47% by
2021.
Transport
1.11 The M27 South Coast motorway links Fareham to the wider motorway network and
provides easy access to Ports and Airports. London is 75 miles away via the M3 or
A3M. Two international sea ports lie close to the Borough - Portsmouth European Ferry
Port and Southampton cruise liner and container port. The Solent corridor’s regional
international airports are also close by - Southampton Eastleigh Airport and
Bournemouth Airport. Britain’s leading international airports are little more than an hour
away.
Economy
1.12 Fareham is located at the heart of urban South Hampshire. The Western Wards and
Whiteley, around Junction 9 of the M27, has been a growth sector within South
Hampshire over the last 30 years. The availability of high quality employment land has
allowed the Borough to become a very buoyant part of the sub-regional economy. In
addition, over the last decade, Fareham has become a telecommunications hub served
by high capacity fibre optic infrastructure that enables sustained business growth
focused on the Cams Estate, close to Junction 11 of the M27.
1.13 The relocation of National Air Traffic Services to the Swanwick Control Centre and to the
Whiteley Technical Centre supports about 2500 well-paid jobs, making it the largest
employer in the area.
1.14 The Core Strategy provides the framework for the delivery of a strategic employment site
at Daedalus airfield. This area has recently been given Enterprise Zone status which is
designed to boost local job creation in the area.
Housing
1.15 Fareham remains the largest town in the Borough, However the 'Western Wards'
(comprising Locks Heath, Sarisbury, Park Gate, Warsash and Titchfield Common) are
now almost as large. Portchester and Stubbington and Hill Head have grown from small
villages to large residential suburbs containing over 6,000 dwellings in each. Only

Annual Monitoring Report
December 2011
Titchfield, Lower Swanwick and Burridge retain a village scale and character. The
number of dwellings in Fareham Borough has increased from approximately 12,000 in
1951 to about 47,500 in March 2010, with more than 57% of the total housing stock
being built since 1961. Information from the Land Registry shows that the average house
price in Fareham in the period April to July 2010 was £212,000, compared with £76,536
in January to March 1996. This is a price increase of 277% over a period of 14 years.
Average property prices for a detached, semi-detached, terrace or flat are £325,227,
£205,623, £169,379 and £127,017, respectively. Whilst past completions of new housing
have been healthy in the Borough, the rate of delivery remains insufficient to
successfully address the problems of affordability.

Local Development Scheme Delivery and
Implementation
LOCAL DEVELOPMENT SCHEME
2.1
The Local Development Scheme (LDS) identifies the preparation stages and timetable for
each of the Development Plan Documents (DPD) that the Council is preparing. In
accordance with Government Guidance in Planning Policy Statement 12: Local Spatial
Planning (2008) and the Town and Country Planning (Local Development) (England)
Regulations 2004 (as amended), this section of the AMR reports on the progress of
documents against LDS timetable and milestones. Where milestones have not been met
a detailed explanation of why this has not been achieved is provided.
2.2
The first iteration of Fareham LDS was published on 19 April 2005 under Regulation 11(3)
of the Town and Country Planning (Local Development) (England) Regulations 2004.
The LDS has had a number of revisions since the original publication. Updated versions
have been published; 28 June 2006; 30 March 2007; 12 March 2009 and more recently;
16 May 2011. The original LDS and its subsequent revisions are later referred to as 2005
LDS, 2006 LDS, 2007 LDS, 2009 LDS and 2011 LDS, respectively.
2.3
Following the amendments in 2008 to the Town and Country Planning (Local
development) (England) Regulations 2004, it is no longer necessary to include
Supplementary Planning Documents (SPDs) within a LDS.
2.4
The 2010 AMR recommended an update of the LDS. A revised LDS was adopted by the
Council in May 2011 and sets out the most up to date published timetables for the
production of DPDs.
LOCAL DEVELOPMENT DOCUMENT PROGRESS
2.5
The diagram overleaf provides an overview of the documents - existing and those being
prepared - that currently make up the Fareham Borough Local Development Framework
(LDF).
2.6
This section of the AMR goes on to audit the progress of each LDF document during the
period 1 April 2010 to the date of publication of this AMR. The summary table on page 13
sets out the progress of production of DPDs against the 2011 Local Development
Scheme (LDS). It also provides a useful indication of any potential need to re-program or
reallocate resources where delivery of a Local Development Document (LDD) has missed
(or is at risk of missing) its key deadlines/milestones.

Core Strategy Development Plan Document
2.7
Following submission at the end of February 2011 for examination, the hearing sessions
took place during May 2011 and the Inspector's Report was received in July. The Core
Strategy was adopted by the Council on 4 August 2011.
2.8
The plan identifies the Borough's development needs up to 2026 and how they will be
met. It sets out the spatial vision, a series of objectives designed to achieve the vision;
overarching key policy areas which provide focus and link the objectives to the spatial
strategy; core delivery policies and an implementation and monitoring framework. The
Core Strategy replaces a number of the Local Plan Review 2000 policies.
2.9
The Core Strategy has achieved its milestones as set out in the LDS 2011 from
Examination through to adoption and was adopted one month in advance of the expected
adoption date.
North of Fareham Strategic Development Area, Area Action Plan
2.10 An Area Action Plan (AAP) for the North of Fareham Strategic Development Area (SDA)
was added to the LDF in the 2009 LDS. Core Strategy Policy CS13 includes the SDA
vision and policy framework for the delivery of the SDA and includes a set of high level
development principles. Policy CS13 includes the provision of between 6,500 and 7,500
dwellings and up to 90,750 sq m of employment floorspace. The boundary for the SDA
will be defined through the AAP.
2.11 The AAP process has commenced with the production of the Sustainability Appraisal
Scoping Report. In addition, the site's landowner consortium produced a Strategic
Masterplan for the new community in October 2010, which was based on community
masterplanning workshops held in July.
2.12 The Council is currently working on a Community Engagement Plan that will set out how
the local community will be involved in developing a draft AAP during 2012 - 2013. Project
Teams have been established to identify the key issues and to steer the development of
the AAP and detailed masterplan. Also underway are a number of evidence studies
needed to provide the detailed justification for the plan its policies and land use
designations. The production of an Infrastructure Development Plan in early 2012 will
identify the infrastructure needed to support the SDA and liaison with infrastructure
providers has and will continue to underpin this.
2.13 It is anticipated that additional time will be needed for all this work such that the AAP
would be adopted by Fareham Borough Council in mid 2014, rather than the autumn of
2013 as in the 2011 LDS. A review of the LDS is therefore needed to update the timetable
for the production of the AAP.
Site Allocations and Development Management Development Plan Document
2.14 Consultation on the first stage of the production of the Site Allocations Development Plan
Document (Issues and Options Stage) was undertaken in early 2008. Comment was
sought on the suitability, sustainability and contribution identified sites could make
towards meeting the requirements set out in the Core Strategy. A summary of the
For further information on this Document please contact planningpolicy@fareham.gov.uk aaaaaaa

Fareham LDF
Annual Monitoring Report
December 2011
responses was published in July 2008. Production of the Site Allocations Development
Plan Document paused following the publication of the consultation summary as Officer
resources were directed toward the Core Strategy. During this interim period, no further
progress on Site Allocations Development Plan Document has been made other than
updating of information on employment and housing site options through updates to the
Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA) and the Employment Land
Review (ELR). Work on this document is expected to resume in January 2012 following a
'call for sites' exercise in November - December 2011.
2.15 In accordance with recommendations from the Planning Inspector's Advisory Visit 3 the
scope of the Core Strategy was altered so the development management policies aspect
of the document, that were initially intended to be included as part of the Core Strategy,
were moved into the Site Allocations DPD. This prompted revisions to the LDS which now
accounts for alterations to the scope of the Site Allocations DPD, now referred to as the
Site Allocation & Development Management DPD (SADM DPD).
2.16 With the amount of work needed to assess the submissions and review the site options,
together with consultation needed with local communities on the preferred sites,
consultation on draft Development Management policies, and issues raised by the Core
Strategy in relation to a review of boundaries for the Strategic Gaps and Urban Areas, it is
anticipated that more time will be needed to reach the stage of a draft plan. This will add
about 6 months to the adoption date of the timetable in the 2011 LDS; a review of the
LDS is therefore needed.
Fareham Town Centre Area Action Plan (AAP)
2.17 Consultation on Issues and Options was undertaken early in 2008 and a summary of the
responses was published in July 2008. Subsequent progress towards a Preferred
Approach document was limited by the need to concentrate resources on the Core
Strategy. In 2009/10 progress was made on studies related to the potential of extending
Bus Rapid Transit and associated land use requirements of a rail-bus interchange and
routeing to serve the SDA and surrounding settlements. During 2011 consultation has
been undertaken with landowners to identify potential constraints and opportunities to
deliver Town Centre development identified in the Core Strategy. Further work on
landowner consultation and evidence gathering, site assessment/development approach
and policy formulation will be progressed in 2012.
2.18 Public consultation on a Preferred Options document is anticipated from July 2012 in
accordance with the current LDS. It is recognised however that this timetable will be
subject to potential resourcing and priority constraints.
Former Coldeast Hospital Development Brief Supplementary Planning Document
(SPD)
2.19 Public consultation concerning the future of the site as part of the preparation of the
development brief took place during November and December 2007. Since then the new
Community Hospital has been completed on part of the site and the development of 251
dwellings (granted in 2003 and extended in 2005) which commenced in 2008 remains

ongoing.
2.20 Further development and environmental opportunities have been established with the site
owners and developers through allocation in the Core Strategy as a Strategic Site. Broad
development proposals for the site contained within the Core Strategy policy CS10 which
allows for a further 150-170 dwellings and a sheltered housing scheme of 60 units to be
accommodated on land outside the urban area, to the west of Brook Lane,
repair/restoration of the historic buildings and land for open space, community and leisure
uses. An additional dwelling 30 units and land for future health facilities will also be
provided on land within the urban area owned by the Primary Care Trust to the west of the
new community hospital.
2.21 Consultation on the final draft of the Coldeast Supplementary Planning Document (SPD)
was undertaken from 6 June 2011 to 18 July 2011. The SPD was adopted by the Council
24 October 2011, one year later than the timetable in the 2009 LDS due to the need to
await the adoption of the Core Strategy.
Daedalus Supplementary Planning Document
2.22 The former HMS Daedalus site was sold by the Ministry of Defence Estates in March
2006. The airfield has been purchased by the Marine & Coastguard Agency which is
continuing operational flying from the site. The South East England Development Agency
(SEEDA) purchased the remaining area of the site although the land has recently been
transferred to the Home and Communities Agency following the dissolution of the
Regional Development Agencies including SEEDA.
2.23 Due to the complexity of issues across the Daedalus site, the development proposals
need to be considered comprehensively through the LDF process. For this reason, the
site is regarded as a strategic site and is an allocation in the Core Strategy with further
details to be set out an SPD. Core Strategy Policy CS12 - Daedalus Airfield Strategic
Development Allocation allows for between 10,000 and 33,000 sq m of additional
employment floorspace to be developed, particularly focusing on aviation and marine
related operations, together with the provision of open space and land for biodiversity and
habitat creation and management.
2.24 The SPD was being prepared using consultation responses and technical work
undertaken by consultants for the South East England Development Agency; however
preparation has been placed on hold following the designation of the site as an Enterprise
Zone in August 2011. This designation requires that a Local Development Order (LDO) be
prepared to specify what development may happen at the site without the need for
planning consent. Meanwhile outline planning applications for the site are being
considered by Fareham and Gosport Borough Councils. Gosport Borough Council
adopted a SPD for the part of the site within its borough. The need to continue with the
SPD or delete it from the LDF programme will be reviewed on adoption of the LDO.

Housing Monitoring and Supply
PAST HOUSING DELIVERY (OUTSIDE THE SDA)
3.1
As
4 per the Town and Country Planning Regulations 2004, Section 38 subsection 3 (ii) (as
amended
.
in 2010), Council's are required to report on housing delivery that has occurred
during
1
the past monitoring year, in this case the period April 1st 2010 to 31st March 2011.
3.2
Housing
4
monitoring is undertaken in partnership with Hampshire County Council to ensure
that
. the housing completion count is accurate and robust. During the 2010/11 year a total
of2 364 dwellings (net) have been completed in the Borough.
3.3
It4is perhaps useful to put this figure in the context of housing delivery in previous years so
useful
.
comparisons can be drawn. Table 3.1 below sets out annual housing completions
since
3
the beginning of the Core Strategy plan period in 2006/2007.

year, returning to levels that were experienced in the Borough in 2008/09. This
trend

should perhaps be expected as it is broadly consistent with trend in the UK housing
market throughout this period.
3.6
The

delivery now exceeds the annual target rate of 340 dwellings per annum (initial
five

the data is aggregated across the five year period housing delivery has far exceeded
housing targets, despite an annual delivery shortfall in years, 2008/09 and 2009/10.
PROJECTED HOUSING DELIVERY (OUTSIDE THE SDA)
3.8
In4 addition to looking at past delivery, Council's are also required to maintain a flexible,
responsive
.
supply of land in order to demonstrate its ability to attain housing delivery
objectives
7
across the plan period. Housing provision data contained within this AMR draws
upon information contained with the Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment
(SHLAA) (November 2010). Where completions have occurred on identified SHLAA sites,
these have been discounted from its overall yield and where new information about
existing sites has come to light this has been considered and where necessary the
delivery phasing of the site has been adjusted accordingly. In addition, new sites that have
been granted planning permission, and are above the SHLAA threshold of 5 units, have
been included as part of the housing supply. This process up has ensured that this AMR
takes account of the most up to date information available (as at the 1 st April 2011) and
provides the most current housing land supply position for the Borough.
3.9
In4 the short-term, Council's must be able to demonstrate a robust five year housing land
supply
.
of deliverable sites. In line Planning Policy Statement 3: Housing (PPS3)
deliverable
8
housing sites are those that are suitable, available and achievable (a definition
of these terms can be found in paragraph 54 of PPS3). The determination of a sites'
deliverability has been undertaken through the SHLAA process.
3.10 It4is also important to consider housing supply in the medium to long term (beyond five
years).
.
For the purposes of this AMR (and in light with the format of the SHLAA) the
medium
9
to long term supply is presented in two distinct delivery phases; medium-term 610 years and; long term 11+ years. Sites within these two latter phases are considered to
be developable: they must be in a suitable location for housing development and there
should be a reasonable prospect that the site is available for, and could be developed at
the point envisaged.
FIVE YEAR HOUSING LAND SUPPLY (OUTSIDE THE SDA)
3.11 Local

Planning Authorities must assess and demonstrate the extent to which existing
plans

3.12 Table
4
3.2 below clearly sets out the housing quantum that is expected to be delivered in
the

the
1 same period. It should be noted that the housing target has been adjusted to account
for
1 overprovision of housing in the previous years, as set out in Table 3.1 (housing
provision targets, before adjustment, are set out in paragraph 4.16 of the Fareham
Borough Core Strategy.
4 The supply of land should be managed in a way that ensures that a continuous five year supply of deliverable sites is maintained ie
at least enough sites to deliver the housing requirements over the next five years of the housing trajectory.

3.13 As table 3.2 demonstrates, the Borough is in a very strong position in terms of housing
supply being able to demonstrate 8.6 years supply of housing (against a government
requirement of 5 years). Appendix 4 sets out the schedule of sites that constitute the five
year housing land supply.
FAREHAM BOROUGH HOUSING TRAJECTORY 2006-2026 (OUTSIDE THE SDA)
3.14 As mentioned above, it is necessary for the Council to be able to demonstrate a robust
housing supply that meets the housing provision target across the plan period. Planning
Policy Statement 12: Local Spatial Planning (PPS12) sets out the requirement for local
planning authorities to provide information on housing policy and performance including
the preparation of a housing trajectory. Building upon the five year supply, Table 3.3 below
considers housing delivery, past and future, and provides the overall housing trajectory
across the plan period5. Figure 3.1 provides a graphical representation of the same data
set.
3.15 The
4 trajectory is a forward planning tool, designed to support the plan, monitor and
manage
.
approach to housing delivery by monitoring both past and anticipated completions
across
1
a period of time. It demonstrates the quantum of housing already delivered and the
number
4
of projected completions for the remainder of the plan period, represented by the
blue and red columns respectively.
3.16 The
4 green 'PLAN' line represents the PUSH Sub-regional Strategy annual target and
demonstrates
.
the phased delivery of housing, with the emphasis placed on early delivery
in1 the plan period.

The overall trajectory demonstrates housing delivery and supply across the plan period (2006-26). In order
to take into account past delivery the trajectory does not consider the adjusted phasing as described in
Table 4.2.

Fareham LDF
Annual Monitoring Report
December 2011
3.17 The
4 orange 'MONITOR' line demonstrates the number of dwellings above or below the
cumulative
.
target at any one point in time. It is essentially cumulative completions less the
cumulative
1
target calculated at each year. It does not take account of the effect of future
completions
6
in meeting the overall target. The MONITOR line provides an early warning
system to indicate whether housing delivery is likely to deviate from delivery of the PUSH
Sub-regional Strategy target. A positive figure demonstrates that a strategy is ahead of the
delivery target whereas a negative figure shows a shortfall in housing delivery. As the
cumulative rate of delivery remains above the cumulative target (i.e. the line remains
above zero throughout the plan period) a shortfall in housing delivery for Fareham
Borough is not anticipated.
3.18 The
4 purple 'MANAGE' line represents the annual number of completions needed to meet
the
. PUSH Sub-regional Strategy total, taking into account any shortfalls or surpluses in
completions
1
from both previous and future years. In order to calculate the managed supply
it7has been necessary to annualise the housing target across the twenty years the plan will
run. To a certain extent this approach will conceal the phased distribution of housing as
per the phased strategic allocation. The value of this MANAGE line is that it allows the
assessment of whether past shortfalls or surpluses will be addressed through future trends
in supply, or whether there is any need for action to allow delivery of the PUSH Subregional Strategy target. The MANAGE line has been calculated using a residual method
and is derived from the total plan allocation less cumulative completions in previous years
divided by the number of years the PUSH Sub-regional Strategy has to run.
3.19 The
4 conclusion drawn from Figure 3.1 is that Fareham will complete delivery of the
required
.
3,729 dwellings toward the beginning of the 2018/19 monitoring year. However,
projected
1
housing delivery will continue to the end of the plan period to 2025/26, through
this
8 period the trajectory shows that a further 476 dwellings will be delivered over and
above the minimum requirement.

HOUSING SUPPLY AT THE NORTH OF FAREHAM STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENT AREA
(SDA)
3.20
The SDA strategic masterplan anticipates that the first dwellings will be delivered at the site
in 2014/15, with development continuing until 2031. Table 3.4 below sets out the proposed
annual housing delivery rate at the SDA. The Fareham Borough Core Strategy, Policy CS13
- North of Fareham Strategic Development Area, provides the basic policy requirements for
the SDA and an Area Action Plan is currently being prepared which will provide more detail
on how the SDA will be delivered.

3.21 As housing construction has not yet started at the SDA, monitoring cannot be undertaken.
However, at this stage it is assumed that the projected completion rate will be equal to the
target build rate. It remains to be seen whether this planned rate of delivery will be so closely
aligned to the actual delivery rate and in reality this is unlikely to occur. Thus, it will be for
future editions of the AMR to report on any deviation of delivery from the planned rate of
delivery and, where possible, manage any potential discrepancy accordingly.

Annual Monitoring Report
December 2011
4. Employment and Retail Floorspace Monitoring
KEY FINDINGS
4.1
An3important aspect of Fareham's strategy is to encourage economic growth. The Strategy
seeks to increase Gross Value Added by 3.5% per annum by 2026. However, given the
current and recent economic climate this is perhaps an ambitious target. Indeed, the
Partnership for Urban South Hampshire (PUSH) commissioned an update to the original
Economic Development Strategy (EDS) produced in 2005, which takes account of the
current macro-economic situation. It is now thought that average annual Gross Value Added
(GVA) growth over the period 2006-26 will be around 2% rather than the PUSH aspiration of
growth in excess of 3% (PUSH Economic Development Strategy (October 2010)).
4.2
With
3 regards to employment floorspace (B use class) delivered in the Borough, there were
three schemes in the Borough which delivered employment floorspace totalling 313 sqm
(gross) B1 floorspace and 1,181 sqm (gross) B2 floorspace however all of these were for
redevelopment schemes for replacement employment units and resulted in a net loss of 553
sqm of employment floorspace. Whilst disappointing, this is perhaps not too surprising
considering the effects of the recession.
4.3
Turning
3
to 'Town Centre Use' floorspace, completions are also disappointing with just 1,240
sq m (gross) provided in town centres (66 West Street Fareham and Broadlaw Walk
Fareham) and a net loss of 82 sq m due to the retail floorspace lost on the Broadlaw Walk
redevelopment scheme. 2,706 sq m (net) floorspace was delivered outside of town centres
(alterations to Sainsbury store and provision of restaurant, Broadcut, Fareham). All of this
development has occurred within the 'A' use class, i.e. retail floorspace. Despite the overall
low rates of town centre use development, a concern here is that a greater proportion of
town centre development is being built outside of town centre areas. This runs contrary to
the Council's 'Town Centre First Strategy' (see PPS4 and Core Strategy Policy CS3).
Although the Core Strategy policy was not adopted during this time this trend will be
monitored closely to ensure that the Core Strategy policy is effective in directing town centre
development to Town Centre areas in line with the hierarchy described in Policy CS3.
4.4
The Retail Health Check, completed biannually in Spring and Autumn, will be an essential
tool for measuring the vitality and viability of Fareham Town Centre, the district centres at
Portchester and Locks Heath and the local centres at Stubbington, Park Gate, Broadlaw
Walk, Highlands Road, Gull Coppice, Titchfield and Warsash. The study will measure:
 Diversity of main town centre uses (by number, type and amount of floorspace);
 The amount of retail, leisure and office floorspace in edge-of-centre and out-of-centre
locations;
 The potential capacity for growth or change of centres in the network;
 Retailer representation and intentions to change representation;

4.5
Although
3
2010/11 has been a particular disappointing year in terms of commercial
development it is useful to observe the temporal trends in employment uses provision in
order to provide an historical context and to allow comparisons to be drawn. Table 3.1 below
sets out annual employment uses provision going back to the beginning of the Core Strategy
plan period in 2006/07. Employment uses include; B1, B1A, B2, B8 and Town Centre Uses
include; A1, A2, B1A, D2. It should be noted that B1A uses (Offices) are generally
acceptable in either Town Centre Areas or in Employment Areas. The second row of the
table considers B1A uses within the wider B1 use class. To alleviate the possibility of double
counting each B1A use has been cross-checked against Town Centre floorspace gains and
Non-Town Centre B1A.
4.6
Table 4.1 shows a decrease in employment provision both in terms of uses and its spatial
distribution (i.e. within or outside of Town Centre areas). When these figures are compared
against the PUSH employment apportionment figures for the period 2006-11, see Table 4.2
below, Fareham exceeds its target for B1 and B2-B8 uses by 5,261 sq m and 855 sq m,
respectively. Overall, across the same timeframe Fareham exceeds its total B-use
employment target by 6,116 sq m. This is largely due to the high level of employment
floorspace gains in 2006/07 and 2008/09. It should be recognised, however, that low
employment floorspace gains should not necessarily be attributed to failing policies but are
closely linked to the prevailing economic difficulties that have been and continue to be
experienced nationwide.

5. Policy Analysis
DEVELOPMENT PLAN POLICIES
5.1 The development plan policy analysis will help to identify whether a policy requires
amendment or replacement in future Development Plan Documents (DPDs) or whether it
should be considered for deletion. The development plan currently includes saved polices 6
retained in the Fareham Borough Local Plan Review (Local Plan) and polices contained
within the Core Strategy. Appendix 1 of this AMR provides a detailed policy analysis of the
existing Development Plan, linking the monitoring framework for the Local Plan with that of
the Core Strategy (as set out in Core Strategy Chapter 7) and grouping the policies by
theme e.g. 'Development Strategy'.
5.2
Following the adoption of the Core Strategy in August 2011 a number of Local Plan policies
have been replaced and hence deleted from the Development Plan and it will no longer be
necessary to monitor and report on these policies. Appendix 2 provides a list of the Local
Plan policies replaced by the Core Strategy and Appendix 3 lists those polices that were
not saved by the Secretary of State's direction in September 2007.
5.3
It is important to note that whilst the adoption of the Core Strategy occurred after the end of
the 2010/11 monitoring period for which this AMR is expected to be concerned this AMR
does not report on Local Plan policies that are now deleted.
ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY
5.4
The analysis identifies, where possible:
 those policies which have not been implemented, explaining why, and setting out
what steps are to be taken to ensure implementation;
 policies to be amended or replaced;
 whether policies are achieving objectives, in particular achieving sustainable
development;
 any unintended consequences arising from the implementation of policies;
 whether the assumptions and objectives behind policies are still relevant; and
 any identified targets being achieved.
5.5
With regards to the Local Plan, there are a limited number of policies that contain specific
time-related wording or targets. Appendix 10 of the Local Plan contains an implementation
schedule for a number of the policies. A summary analysis has been made of progress
towards meeting this implementation schedule. This is based upon the full assessment in
Appendix 1.

Core Output Indicators
5.6
As3 mentioned in section 1 of this AMR, the requirements for monitoring and reporting on
Core Output Indicators were removed by the Ministerial Letter of 30 March 2011. However,
some of these indicators are still considered useful in terms of measuring LDF policies and
will therefore be retained.
Local Indicators
5.7
Local
3
Indicators help to form a baseline or backdrop covering areas that are not
encompassed by the Core Output Indicators. Local Indicators are used to consider the
effects of policies and help inform the interpretation of Core Output Indicators.
Contextual Indicators and Significant Effects Indicators
5.8
Contextual
3
indicators can help to form a profile of the area, and assist in creating an
assessment of the Borough. Significant Effects Indicators are established through the
sustainability appraisals process. As the monitoring framework for the LDF matures, as
DPD policies are formulated and progressed, a more quantitative framework will be applied
to ensure the monitoring and assessment of objectives, targets and indicators is
undertaken on a quantifiable basis. Over time contextual and significant effects indicators
will be more readily use in the monitoring process.
Data Availability and Gaps
5.9
The
3 main sources of data and information on development completions and other
indicators of the state of the borough are derived from Fareham Borough Council
departments, Hampshire County Council Survey Reports, and Hampshire Biodiversity
Information Centre. A full list of sources is provided in Appendix 6.
KEY FINDINGS
Development Strategy
5.10 The
3 Development Strategy policies set out the proposed distribution of development across
the Borough. The Plan area is broad settlement areas, focussed around the established
settlements - Fareham, the Western Wards & Whiteley and the smaller settlements of
Portchester, Stubbington & Hill Head and Titchfield. The Core Strategy seeks to focus
development on previously developed land within the most sustainable and accessible
settlements (this was also a key policy approach in the Local Plan). The majority of
development is proposed to take place in Fareham and the Western Wards.
Site Specific Polices
5.11 The delivery of Core Strategy policy CS6 - Spatial Strategy will be supplemented by the
delivery of two Strategic Allocations at Coldeast and Daedalus. Local Plan Policies DG10
Coldeast Hospital and DG12 Daedalus Airfield have now been replaced by Core Strategy,
policies CS10 and policy CS12, respectively.

Development Guideline (DG) Policies
5.12 Existing
3
Local Plan DG policies are difficult to measure. The analysis demonstrates that
targets and indicators are predominantly subjective, where only the site specific policies
can be measured through Local Indicators. The majority of the DG policies are achieved
through consideration during pre-application discussions and development control decision
making in general. The remaining DG policies will be revised through the Site Allocations
and Development Management Policies DPD.
Countryside, Coast and Nature Conservation Policies
5.13 The
3 majority of 'Countryside policies' are measurable through counting the number of
applications permitted in accordance with each of the policies. All of the 'Countryside
policies' continue to be achieved through consideration throughout pre-application and
development management decision-making processes. The principle of maintaining and
safeguarding the countryside has been revised and carried through into the Core Strategy
DPD.
Historic Environment Policies
5.14 All3the existing policies for the historic environment are measurable through counting the
number of applications permitted in accordance and not in accordance with the policies.
Furthermore, the historic environment policies are continually used throughout preapplication and development management decision-making processes. However, the
outstanding issue is the lack of a monitoring system in place to record the exact
achievement of these policies.
Housing Policies
5.15 Housing
3
policies are predominantly measured through a combination of progress of
delivery of housing allocations and Core Output Indicator information. The housing policies
will be revised and encompassed within a variety of future LDDs including the Core
Strategy, the Area Action Plans and SPDs due to their site specific nature.
5.16 Local Plan Policy H15 Sites for Gypsies and Travellers (now replaced by CS19 Gypsies
Travellers and Travelling Showpeople) has historically been a difficult policy to measure.
Core Output Indicator H4 now covers this and this indicator has been carried forward. The
achievement of policies has been assessed predominantly through the identification of
permission granted for such uses. Local Gypsy, Travellers and Travelling Showpeople
pitch need and provision will be addressed through the Site Allocations and Development
Management DPD.
5.17 Policy
3
H10 Affordable Housing (replaced by Core Strategy policy CS18) has been
supplemented by the Affordable Housing Supplementary Planning Document which was
adopted in December 2005 and came into effect in January 2006. This SPD has helped to
deliver the target level of affordable housing throughout the Borough. Last year low
completions in market housing, as a result of the recession, resulted in a significant decline
in the number of affordable houses provided. Completions in market housing have still
been relatively low through 2011/12, however, as shown in Core Output Indicator H5 there
has been a marked increase in the number of affordable homes being delivered in the
For further information on this Document please contact planningpolicy@fareham.gov.uk aa a26
Fareham LDF
Annual Monitoring Report
December 2011
Borough with 133 social rented and 84 intermediate homes being delivered (gross).
Facilities, Services Infrastructure and Contributions Policies
5.18 The
3 majority of the existing facilities and services policies are site specific and therefore
measurable through the progression of site development. The measurement of the site
specific policies can be measured as Local Indicators with implementation established in
the saved polices of the Local Plan. The achievement of these polices is analysed through
the completion and progress of specific sites.
Recreation, Leisure and Tourism Policies
5.19 The
3 analysis of the recreation, leisure and tourism policies show that these policies can be
measured through either Local or Core Output Indicators. The achievement of these
policies can then be assessed through examples of development or progress toward
delivery of identified sites. These policies will be revised and encompassed within the Site
Allocations and Development Management DPD.
Employment Policies
5.20 The
3 existing employment policies can be measured through Core Output Indicators and
Local Indicators where a schedule for their implementation has been established in the
adopted Development Plan. Where the policies refer to specific sites their achievement
can be assessed using examples. The employment policies will be revised and
incorporated into a variety of DPDs including the Area Action Plans.
Shopping and the Town Centre Strategy Policies
5.21 The
3 saved policy analysis demonstrates that the majority of existing policies can be
measured. The Retail Health Check, completed biannually in Autumn and Spring, will
assist with monitoring and measuring the measuring the vitality and viability of centres within
the Borough. The achievement of these policies is predominantly though the development
management process. Where a policy refers to a particular site, examples have been
noted indicating any achievement. The principle of town centre and shopping development
is established in the Core Strategy, with any detail to be encompassed within the Site
Allocations and Development Management Policies DPD and the Fareham Town Centre
Area Action Plan.
Transport Policies
5.22 The
3 policy analysis demonstrates how the current transport policies can be measured in a
variety of ways, with their achievements assessed through examples and through use
within development control. Because the existing policies are varied they will be covered
within all future DPDs including Area Action Plans depending upon the nature of the policy.
The analysis highlights how transport policies must be dealt with individually in order to
form effective policies within the LDF.

December 2011
CONCLUSION
5.23 The
3 saved policy analysis demonstrates how the majority of current local plan policies are
working effectively, particularly through the use of policies in decision-making processes.
5.24 The
3 analysis shows how a small number of policies cannot be measured through the use of
Core Output Indicators or Local Indicators. This raises the issue that future policies should
aim to be written in such a manner that they can be assessed in quantifiable terms.
Furthermore, a system must be in place to continually collect and assess data in order to
provide an effective method of policy analysis.
5.25 This
3 analysis is important and useful in highlighting areas of policies that require revision in
order to reflect current and changing circumstances that the Borough faces, in order to
derive effective policies. This is shown in the recommendations to a number of saved
policies on the grounds that they are repeating other government guidance, or have no
further use. A more detailed overview pertaining to the deletion or amendment of polices is
provided in the next chapter.

Recommendations
6.1
The following section provides an overview of the recommendations that will improve the
monitoring of LDF policies.
CS15 Sustainable Development and Climate Change
6.2
There is currently no monitoring system in place to effectively measure the promotion of
Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems. Furthermore, defining a Sustainable Urban
Drainage System is subjective in itself. A new monitoring system should be devised to
address this indicator.
6.3
At present there is no system in place to effectively monitor compliance with this policy.
Conditions should be attached to planning consent to ensure relevant Code for
Sustainable Homes and BREEAM standards are achieved. Conditions could be devised
that that require the applicant to commission a report by an independent licensed code
assessor to ensure that the standards are being met post construction/pre occupation.
This cost would be the responsibility of the applicant.
CS16 Renewable Energy
6.4
There is no monitoring system currently in place to effectively monitor renewable energy
production. The policy only seeks renewable energy contributions from developments
over a certain threshold. However, renewable energy generation can be undertaken
under permitted development rights. Renewable energy installation under pd rights may
provide a substantial proportion of the overall production although capturing the
contribution will be problematic. The majority of renewable energy installations must to
be registered with the district energy supplier, Southern and Scottish Electric (SEE), to
ensure sufficient capacity exists within the network. Investigations should be made to
see whether SEE have the data to quantify renewable energy output across the
Borough. Ofgem provide a schedule of all renewable energy installation that are
registered for the Government's Feed in Tariff (FIT) incentive, there is potential to use
this data to identify how much energy is being produced. However, as the FIT is reduced
in 2012 it is possible that fewer people will register with this Ofgem system which would
impact on the reliability of the data.
CS17 High Quality Design
6.5
The design principles set out in the policy should form an intrinsic aspect of any
development. Where possible, design should be considered from the out-set and should
ideally be discussed at the pre-application stage. All residential schemes should be
required to meet Lifetime Home Standards. Lifetime Home Standards are closely allied
to the design principles set out in the policy. Development Management, in consultation
For further information on this Document please contact planningpolicy@fareham.gov.uk aa a29
Fareham LDF
Annual Monitoring Report
December 2011
with the Design Team, will ensure that the principles are met before the grant of planning
consent (with regards to Lifetimes home this will be encouraged up to 2013 and required
thereafter). It will be necessary to devise a monitoring system that captures the number
of schemes that do not conform to these principles, in order to determine the
effectiveness of the policy.
CS20 Infrastructure and Developer Contributions
6.6
In order to monitor the effectiveness of this policy, a system will need to be devised that
records the number of developments permitted that do not make infrastructure
obligations that should be required to do so by the policy. In some instances, where it
can be demonstrated that it is not possible (or necessary) to provide contributions this
should be justified by the applicant. It will be important to distinguish, through the AMR,
which planning applications which have not justifiably provided planning obligations; if
the policy is effective this figure should be nil.
CS4 Green Infrastructure, Biodiversity and Geological Conservation
6.7
Policy C17 sets out the requirement to contribute to the objectives and targets set out in
UK, Regional, County and Local Biodiversity Action Plans, particularly within the
identified Biodiversity Opportunity Areas. This indicator cannot be reported on currently
due to a lack of data availability. A reliable data source to report on this indicator is
required in order to measure the effectiveness of part of the policy.
6.8
It is currently not possible to measure the amount, quality and function of green
infrastructure delivered. It will be necessary to devise a monitoring system that captures
the number of schemes that do not conform to these principles, in order to determine the
effectiveness of the policy.
CS21: Protection and Provision of Open Space
6.9
There is no robust mechanism for monitoring the quantum of additional open space
being provided or the loss of open space. A mechanism will be required where the
quantum of open space is recorded at the point where consent is granted. It will also be
necessary to measure the quality and accessibility and spatial location of the addition
open space in order to measure the effectiveness of this policy.

Reducing, reusing and recycling waste on-site;
Preventing the loss of the best and most versatile
agricultural land (Grades 1, 2 or 3a of the Natural England
Agricultural Land Classifications System);
Protecting mineral resources from permanent
development, without first allowing for extraction, which
would lead to the sterilisation of the deposit.
Development (1 dwelling or more and 500m2 or more of nonresidential floorspace) will be encouraged to contribute to the
Fareham target of 12MW of renewable energy by 2020. Major
developments (250 dwellings or more or 5,000 sq m or more of
non-residential floorspace) should aim to maximise on-site
renewable energy production and resource efficiency. In such
cases, the extent of contribution should be demonstrated, taking
account of viability. The generation of energy from renewable or
