Eastleigh Borough - The Next 20 Years:

Core Strategy and Community Plan Stakeholders' Workshop

On 22 May 2008 around sixty invited delegates from a wide range of organisations working in the Borough attended a half-day workshop at the Eastleigh Railway Insititute. The purpose of the workshop was to help provide input for the development of a joint Core Strategy / Community Plan Consultation Document, which was publicly circulated in September 2008 at the start of a 6 week consultation period.

Each workshop participant was provided with:

a Discussion Paper (3Mb: a large file) providing statistical information on the Borough
a Summary of the Key Issues (4Kb) raised by the Discussion Paper

The Discussion Paper represents a summary version of a larger and more detailed document - the Evidence Base

(6Mb: a large file) - which was created by the Borough Council to produce the Discussion Paper.

The feedback produced by participants during the workshop was collated into a set of notes, which was later circulated to all the workshop's participants.
