- The allocation of major urban extensions and associated new road in the Green Belt to the north of Leamington is not the most sustainable option for the District when less environmentally sensitive alternative sites are available;
- The essential characteristics of green belt is their openness and their permanence - development to the north of Leamington would severely impact upon this character;
- The green belt sites to the north of Leamington are considered to function well with regard to: a) preventing urban sprawl; b) preventing the merging of Leamington and Kenilworth; c) safeguard the rural countryside from encroachment; d)ensuring the setting and special character of Leamington.
There are no exceptional circumstances which outweigh the harm caused by altering the Green Belt to the north of Leamington and allocating development in this location.
