Object to development at Old Milverton and Blackdown.
Loss of recreational land.
Prevents merging of towns and loss of their identities.
'Out of town' shopping will take trade from towns.
Old Milveron is one of last surviving villages near Leamington.
No evidence to support exceptional circumstances required.
I have recently heard that Warwick District Council are planning to build housing and a retail park on the greenbelt land around Blackdown & Old MIlverton, and that this plan includes making part of the Kenilworth road a dual carriageway.
I would like to register my objection to the development for the following reasons:
* This land has great recreational value to the local community. It is enjoyed by many runners, riders, walkers and cyclists.
* To prevent the merging of Leamington and Kenilworth, and their loss of independent identities.
* "Out of town" shopping will take trade away from the Towns.
* Old Milverton is one of the last surviving villages close to Leamington that has not been absorbed into the greater conurbation.
The NPPF states that Greenbelt boundaries should only be altered in exceptional circumstances. I hope you can take my objection seriously into consideration along with any others you have received.
