Policy HSG7: Custom and Self Build Housing
Afternoon –
Please see attached our response to Basingstoke and Deane Council's Regulation 18 Local Plan consultation on behalf of Leaper Land and Hathor Property.
The response outlines a Masterplan Framework for a residential development east of Aldermaston Road in Pamber Green, proposing up to 50 dwellings with a mix of custom build homes alongside public open space. Our response details the site's suitability, highlighting its connectivity, local demand for custom-build housing, and alignment with government policies. It critiques Draft Policy HSG7 for its approach to custom and self-build housing, suggesting revisions to better support the sector and foster a diverse housing mix. The document argues for smaller, community-focused developments and emphasises the need for high design standards and essential infrastructure.
I would be grateful if you could please confirm receipt.
