The Bird Group are not supportive of the proposals for 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. No timescales are provided for the preparation of the Part 2 Plan, other than it will be prepared following the adoption of the Part 1 Plan.
2 The need for significant new infrastructure and facilities to support the Potential New Settlements will mean that these growth locations are unlikely to be delivered until towards the end of the Plan Period to 2050.
It is submitted that the Part 1 Plan should include smaller allocations in sustainable locations adjacent to existing settlements as part of a mix of sites within the Spatial Growth Strategy to assist in meeting South Warwickshire’s identified housing need.
The subject site is considered to be suitable for this purpose as it is geographically sustainable by reason of its relationship with Wilmcote and due to the scale of development (10 dwellings) which means it is able to be delivered quickly.
