BASE HEADER

Thanks for giving us the possibility to give our views, but frankly, what a foolish plan! This is the breathing place of local residents, which makes a good separation between West Midlands and Warwickshire, where cycling paths are welcome, where green and open spaces should be protected, where noise and traffic levels should be avoided. The cycling options provided by this green area help to secure a more sustainable environment. Building there will be against the protection of key assets to the Warwick District, including the protection of wildlife, etc. We do not want the high speed train there either! I have seen houses for sale in this area, which do not get sold, so I don't believe in housing needs at this location.

In reply to comments by Mr Andrew Day (ID: 43760) and Mr Robert Johnson (ID 43582): If the reason behind this scheme is to attract students or staff from the University of Warwick, or residents from Coventry, rather than actual housing needs from Warwick District Council then this so-called housing need is no longer credible and viable. Furthermore,
(1) Students' numbers are in decline and their accomodation arrangements are provided for within the campus and Coventry districts.
(2) It would make the University less attractive to staff and students at large and the Council would have no moral authority to stop Warwick University from developing southwards.
