WPDG is generally supportive of the Strategic Objectives, which will address the key strategic challenges and opportunities for South Warwickshire.
Strategic Objectives 1 and 2
As has been established, the SWLP is proposed to be a two-part Plan in which only strategic sites (i.e. strategic allocations for new settlements and large scale urban extensions) are to be included in the Part 1 Plan. Policies for the consideration of smaller sites specific to the local area (i.e. within and adjacent to existing settlements) are to be provided in the Part 2 Plan. There is a requirement for smaller allocations to meet the identified housing needs in the shorter term and therefore it is considered that Strategic Objectives 1 and 2 will not be realised until after the adoption of the Part 2 Plan.
Strategic Objective 3 is concerned with ensuring development has the infrastructure needed to support the growth in new homes and jobs. In principle this is an appropriate objective to be included in the SWLP, however, we note that the emphasis is on “providing” infrastructure in the right place at the right time. In the interest of supporting the delivery of sustainable development, the SWLP should first support new development in locations that are best able to make use of existing infrastructure.
