This is my letter of objection to building on Green Belt Land in Blackdown and Old Milverton as shown in the 2012 Preferred options Plan.

I went to the meeting at North Leamington School to hear about the 2012 Preferred options Plan and was appalled at the cavalier attitude shown toward the audience and felt the officials present at the meeting considered the plan put forward as a done deal with little option available.

One only needed to look at the overall map showing the proposed development areas to realise that the council were trying to win approval for building on green belt when White and Brown land was already set aside from the 2009 plan and none of the officials seem to be able to answer WHY.

Also why are we wanting to build more houses than is required by the National plan. If we stuck to the National Plan numbers then no extra land is required thus saving building a new road plus other infra structure projects to support over 1400 houses in what is currently Green Belt.

Makes one wonder who the Officials are really representing!!! Certainly not the existing ones of North Leamington. The area of North Leamington Blackdown and Milverton is an asset to Leamington Spa. It is enjoyed by many walkers, runners riders and cyclists and should be preserved for the future of all residents including the next generation of children who deserve the opportunity to easily walk and enjoy open countryside. It would be shameful and morally wrong to build in Blackdown and Old Milverton as shown in the 2012 Preferred options Plan until you have exhausted all alternatives and checked that the number of houses you require is needed and if so found to be at least offer alternatives to the plan put forward at the moment.
