Call for sites

We have started work on the review of the Eastleigh Local Plan 2016-2036. As part of the initial work, we invited you to propose land within the Borough that may be suitable for the following uses:

• housing and other residential uses such as specialist housing for older person and also including Gypsy and Travellers sites
• employment including industry and storage and distribution
• other uses such as retail, community uses, open spaces and
  environmental mitigation land.

The closing date for submissions was Wednesday 6 September 2023.

The Council has since undertaken an Issues and Options consultation and has published an interim Strategic Land Availability Assessment that reports the sites submitted as part of the Call for Sites. The consultation ended on 29th January 2025.

During the Issues and Options consultation, the Council received further site submissions. These will be assessed in more detail alongside the sites in the interim Strategic Land Availability Assessment. This will consider if they are suitable, available and achievable for development or for environmental improvements. The assessments will be published in an updated Strategic Land Availability Assessment and the results will inform site allocations in the Local Plan Review.

The Council is no longer able to accept sites as part of the Call for Sites exercise. Any subsequent sites proposed for development will be considered as omission sites as the Local Plan progresses.
