Careful review of the Green Belt Boundary around Kenilworth (as a whole)
is required.
- The north corner of Crewe Lane adjacent to Reservoir House needs to be
removed from the Green Belt as it does not serve any useful Green Belt
purpose.
Green Belt Boundaries 16.3,16.10 and NPPF para 85
I note that the boundary of the Green Belt around Kenilworth will be
drastically altered to accommodate a number of the preferred development
options. I consider this a pertinent time to review the boundary as a whole
and remove any inappropriate or ineffectual areas of land from the Green
Belt.
In particular I suggest that the land on the north corner of Crewe Lane and
Glasshouse Lane be removed from the Green Belt. This land is surrounded by
built development or forms part of the domestic curtilage of Reservoir
House and currently serves no useful Green Belt purpose. Furthermore, it
seems to clearly be an area which the NPPF para 85 states when defining
boundaries, should not be included.
If removed from the Green Belt it is likely this parcel with seperate
vehicular access may be regarded as
suitable for a small bungalow style dwelling. This would be commensurate
with a policy of identifying possible windfall sites and using them as a
contribution towards required housing numbers.
This would seem a logical step before further 'genuine greenbelt' is
considered for future development due to satisfying future housing need.
