Development would:
-increase carbon footprint
-increase pressure on water table leading to localised flooding.
-increase pressure on infratsructure such as schools. It is unclear whether the infrastructure would be sufficient in its current state.
Some brownfield sites earmarked for supermarket development could be used for housing. Have possible projects such as HS2 been considered when the plans were put forward? How will proposals be financed?
The propels to expand the existing built up area, will inevitable affect the local wild life, increase the carbon footprint, and building on such a scale as is proposed could adversely affect the existing water table increasing the possibility of localised flooding..The area already has excellent primary,junior and secondary educational facilities.There are a number of Supermarkets available and more are proposed on brown field sites in Leamington, why not utilise space on those sites for housing developments? the services exist as doe's the public transport network These facilities both over ground and underground would need to be created, the existing Victorian sewage and drainage in the area is constantly under repair and maintenance.
Has there or will there be a Public Consultation on This?
Has the effect of the proposed HS2 High Speed Train project been factored in? (that project alone will have an enormous impact on the local environment)
Doe's the market exist for the proposed private housing element of this project?
Are there enough retail commercial and manufacturing vacancies to absorb a significant increase in the population ?, (local unemployment is still high and with the proposed government cutbacks could increase)
How will the proposal be financed. no PFI ? I hope. where our grandchildren pick up the costs of the former folly of others.
I forward my objections to the proposal to build on green field land North Leamington, further to my comment on the affect on water tables in the area. There have already been incidents of the flooding of properties in Kenilworth Road due to runoff from the open land opposite, the concreting over of large areas in the vicinity could only affect the adjacent water table, and increase the probability of localised flooding.
