I find it incomprehensible that development is proposed in North Leamington when infrastructure is in place South of Leamington already. The type of employment there lends itself to mixed development(housing/office/high tech/retail) and where travel to work shouldn't entail as many journeys by car. Its proximity to "Old Town" would greatly encourage the "Up grading" of this area of Leamington. Future employment opportunities are obviously in the area south of Leamington.

Surely having new development involving infrastructure is far more economical if kept where the new infrastructure would not have to be fragmented and could more easily be extended from the modern infrastructure already in place in the vicinity.

The area between Leamington and Kenilworth bordering the river Avon provides a "Green Lung" and is of far greater value for recreation than the land south of the town,

Decisions were taken in the past to provide housing and employment in the area to the south of Leamington and not to follow on with further expansion of this planning appears very indecisive and weak.
