The green belt between Westwood Ward and Kenilworth should remain. The nearest preferred site to Burton Green is Thickthorn. Cromwell Lane, Bockendon Avenue / Crackley Lane are already busy and dangerous.
Thank you for your information on WDC plans for future building. I have passed this on to as many residents as possible in my Ward.
As City Shadow Cabinet member for Housing and a Director of Whitefriars Housing Group, I am well aware of the need for housing, but I make two main points;
A I have no comment on what WDC propose in other areas, away from Westwood Ward;
B the open space between my Ward and Kenilworth should remain green.
I am very grateful for the comments from Cllr George Illingworth, a Warwick District Councillor (and present Mayor of Kenilworth)
Cllr Illingworth has specifically said, inter alia;
"That Green Belt around Coventry must remain intact. The nearest preferred site to Burton Green is at Thickthorn in Kenilworth.
I entirely agree, and would remind everyone that Cromwell Lane is already busy and Bockendon Avenue/ Crackley Lane potentially dangerous. A large lorry, with the driver speaking on his mobile telephone, nearly forced me off that road recently
