Green Belt

It is acknowledged that parts of South Warwickshire fall within the West Midlands Green Belt. The 24 Strategic Growth Locations and 12 new settlement locations, put forward in the SWLP Preferred Options document, include a mixture of Green Belt and non-Green Belt locations. The outcomes of the Stage 2 Green Belt Review, for the SWLP, will be important in deciding the most appropriate/suitable sites to allocate at Regulation 19, as it will assess the performance of these specific sites and also villages which are currently ‘washed over’ by the Green Belt designation. Furthermore, commissioning a Grey Belt Review may also be an avenue to explore, in relation to the introduction of the Grey Belt in the December 2024 NPPF, to ensure a robust evidence base is prepared to support future South Warwickshire planning decisions and in this plan-making process.
