Whilst recognising the need for a "Town Plan" to meet the future housing needs in Royal Leamington Spa, we are appalled that green belt land is even being considered when other options are available. Urban sprawl is not the answer; running the risk of linking one town to another destroys the feeling of community identity.

Land development to the South of the Town would make more sense. The motorway road and rail links are already established providing good links to other parts of the country and industrial parks in the area, thus eliminating the need for employees to live too far from their place of work.

Building of such a scale on land to the North of the town would most certainly require a relief road requiring even further destruction of our valuable countryside.

Please think very carefully before destroying our countryside - it can't be replaced.
