Object to the new Proposed Development Plans in the Green Belt area of North Leamington.
It would be unforgivable and irresponsible of planners to damage this area of North Leamington, when with a little effort and thought they could find other more appropriate sites such as such as the former Ford foundry site which you have foolishly allowed to be developed into offices when there are existing office blocks already empty in the town.
The Council constantly preaches a greener more sustainable way of living yet chooses not to build new houses on sites such as this brown field site, which would have given the new residents easy access to Leamington train station, both Leamington and Warwick town centres, local already existing supermarkets and retail areas and on an existing bus route.
Instead you wish to decimate our beautiful green belts creating communities that are totally dependent on cars - how dare you purport to be a Council that supports green and sustainable policies.
Much is made, quite rightly, of conserving our historic buildings but it is now time to give our countryside the same protection - you risk ruining this natural treasure for us and future generations.
When I have discussed this issue with the many people I know all agree that it is vital that the greenbelt is preserved but many tell me we are wasting our time, that the Planners will put on a show of listening but will then do exactly as they want with no concern for the residents of Leamington wishes. They tell me that all that counts is money. Please prove them wrong and make the morally correct decision and save our greenbelt.
This is your chance to make good and wise decisions and show yourselves as a Council that really does care about the environment.
