I believe a new settlement should be freestanding, self-sufficient in energy, and minimise the need for travel. B1 does not meet any of these.

The NPPF states that Green Belt should only altered in exceptional circumstances, and this should be fully evidenced and justified. The proposals for Hatton are contrary to the purposes of the Green Belt, and particularly contravene purposes a), b), and d), which are the three principles that the PSED (Public Sector Equality Duty) specifically says should be avoided when proposing alterations to Green Belt boundaries.

This new settlement would join Hatton with Warwick, which is already inseparable from Leamington, leading to a sprawling contiguous linear development from Leamington to Hatton Station.
