I object to the whole of the proposed Hatton B1 development .

Destruction of rural character of area and loss of agricultural land.

The Hatton area is green belt which is designed to stop urban sprawl and if this development of 8000 houses which equates to a town of 20,000 people goes ahead a massive urban sprawl will result. The area has a charming rural character at present and is an important recreational area for walking on its roads and footpaths and along the canal towpath which will have houses on both sides of it thus destroying its rural character. The area has small amounts of woodland small woods, spinneys and coppices as well as agricultural land therefore it will be very detrimental to wildlife. Warwick Town cannot cope with all the present traffic so another 20,000 people on its doorstep would be horrendous. Because of the historic nature of the centre of Warwick it is virtually impossible to build new roads to alleviate the situation.

Increase of traffic

The traffic from 8000 new houses pouring on to the existing road network will be a nightmare for drivers.

The Green Belt designation must remain permanent and not be capable of being overturned by spurious "special circumstances". Massive overcrowding of the local area will be detrimental to people's mental health.
