Provision of Housing Strategy advice in respect of the Oxfordshire Cotswolds Garden Village and West Eynsham SDA

The District Council wishes to commission independent housing strategy advice including the most appropriate 'mix' of housing products and tenures at two sites in the context of the local housing market, for both market and affordable housing. This will subsequently form part of the supporting evidence base for both the AAP and the SPD.

As part of the West Oxfordshire Local Plan 2031, land north of the A40 near Eynsham has been allocated as a 'Strategic Location for Growth' (SLG) to accommodate a Garden Village.

The allocation - referred to as the 'Oxfordshire Cotswolds Garden Village' - is based on a working assumption of around 2,200 homes together with about 40 hectares of business land (B-class) in the form of a 'campus-style' science park. Other supporting facilities including education, transport and green infrastructure will also be required.

In addition, an area of land to the west of Eynsham has been allocated as a 'Strategic Development Area' (SDA) intended to accommodate an urban extension of around 1,000 homes together with supporting facilities including a new western spine road and primary school.
