The land has been assessed by the planning authority as Site 751 in the HELAA.
Whilst I support the principle of the ‘South of Coventry’ Strategic Growth Location 01’, as identified in the Preferred Options Consultation, I object to the non-inclusion of
Site 751 within the designated Growth Location.
land at Brook Farm lies immediately adjacent to the new urban edge of Coventry and will have ready and convenient access to the range of community and
infrastructure facilities to be provided as part of the Kings Hill development, including a local centre, primary school and play areas. This reality is not reflected in the
scoring system employed by the HELAA.
If the proximity to Kings Hill were taken into account, then taken together with the other points raised in this submission, the land at Brook Farm – Site 751 – would
have a significantly lower constraint scope than either of the nearby supported sites –
reference 80 and 103.
This is supported by a common-sense review of the indicative Proposal Map where the land would be a small island of undeveloped land sandwiched between two
strategic growth locations.
We therefore ask for Site 751 to be identified as suitable for development within the proposed Strategic Growth Location 01.
