The Bishop's Tachbrook Parish Council Alternative option provides a sensible solution to meeting new housing needs. Instead of the wholesale development of these new sites which has the major drawback of needless use of greenbelt and prime farm land, the BTPC proposal recommends using as much brownfield and low value greenbelt as possible.
- We support the development proposal for Kenilworth Wardens and Woodside Training Centre, Kenilworth. This seems a sensible extension to the site at Thickthorn upon previously-developed land.
- We do not support the development proposal for South of Sydenham, but I would comment that the development north of the bridleway to Radford Semele would be acceptable.
- We do not support the development proposal at Glebe Farm, Cubbington, but I would comment that development of the north-western corner adjacent to Cubbington would be acceptable.
- We do not support the development proposal at Loes Farm (north Warwick), but I would comment that a small development close to the Saxon Mill would be acceptable.
- We do not support the development proposal for Hurst Farm, Burton Green, but I would comment that a small extension of the University of Warwick would be acceptable.
- We do not support the development of all the land around Baginton Airport, but I would comment that development of the large brown-field site south of the airport would be acceptable.
In addition, the Alternative Option would spread the impact on infrastructure rather than overload our community and create an urban sprawl.
I have read the 'Alternative Option' from Bishop's Tachbrook Parish Council. I commend it to you for study before you publish your final 'Core Strategy'.
