CP3 Scale And Distribution Of New Housing
Within the period 2011-2028 the Borough Council will make provision for 3,240 (net) additional dwellings. This will be provided by:
- Promoting the use of previously developed land in settlement areas and ensuring the most effective use of that land;
- Allocating the Princess Royal Barracks, Deepcut for redevelopment for some 1200 new homes
- After 2025 if insufficient sites have come forward within settlement areas release of sustainable sites in the Countryside beyond the Green Belt
- Small scale affordable housing schemes as rural exception sites outside of settlement boundaries of the rural villages;
- Resisting any development that involves a net loss of housing unless it can be demonstrated that the benefits outweigh the harm.
Within the period 2011-2025 the provision of 2,730 (net) additional dwellings will generally be distributed as follows:
| Bagshot | 270 (10%) | Frimley Green | 20 (1%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bisley | 45 (2%) | Lightwater | 40 (1%) |
| Camberley | 860 (31%) | Mytchett | 55 (2%) |
| Chobham* | 55 (2%) | West End | 20 (1%) |
| Deepcut† | 1235 (45%) | Windlesham | 20 (1%) |
| Frimley | 120 (4%) | Total | 2,730 (100%) |
* The figure for Chobham includes allowance for rural exceptions
† The figure for Deepcut includes 1,200 units allocated to Princess Royal Barracks
Within the period 2026-2028 the Borough Council will make provision for 510 dwellings within settlement areas or if insufficient sites come forward then through the release of sustainable sites within the Countryside beyond the Green Belt.
The Council will not permit development which, either alone or in-combination with other development, has an adverse effect upon the integrity of the European Sites.
