Before any development is granted permission, it is essential that the necessary infrastructure is put into place. The recent developments that have been completed, or, are currently being constructed do not have enough GP surgeries, dental practices, shops, community centres, open spaces or schools. Why add to this with more houses?

Living in Kenilworth I am well aware of the traffic problems around the newly built Kenilworth school, the pupils are put at risk by insufficient footpaths & crossing places. This was due to opening the school before the correct road management was put in place, this must not be allowed to happen with other developments.

Our roads in this area are not adequate to cope with the increased traffic that will be generated by more houses; most households will probably have 1 or 2 vehicles. They will need places to park, especially if the house do no have big enough drives or garages. County highways, in my opinion, do not always consider the impact more traffic will have on the area. No one in planning appears to be worried about the damage to our environment by increased traffic.

The drainage, water supplies, supply of power should also be considered before a development takes place

The district council must ensure that developers adhere to the planning conditions mentioned when their developments are given permission, the 106 agreements must be put in place by developers (unfortunately, this has not always been the case so WDC should make sure that agreements are met)
