When we receive relatives from the USA, they find it incredible how much countryside we in the UK have, considering how small the UK is, compared to its considerable population. A visit to the USA, Los Angeles a fine example, sprawls for over 80 miles to the north and south confirms,the major planning errors made there.
Our forefathers, gave us the country we enjoy today. Towns and Cities contained, even in times of massive industrial growth,.leaving open defined countryside. It is our responsibility, to maintain this for future generations to come. The UK population is increasing and needs to be housed,brown field sites should be used first, and it is only fair our town of Leamington Spa plays its part. It is essential the green belt is maintained, but could be carefully expanded. When looking at the proposed areas around Leamington, it is to the south of the town that creates less impact on the greenbelt, being quite some distance from Stratford on Avon, compared to a short distance from north Leamington to Kenilworth.
So lets hope common sense prevails, and vested interests are not allowed to fudge the issue. Its far to important.
