Testun llawn:
I strongly object for many reasons:
1. The Green Belt open character of Hampton Magna will be compromised. I understood the central government's policy was to only use green belt land in 'exceptional circumstances'?! The village has already suffered it's fair share of green belt erosion with Warwick Parkway Station being built and expanded considerably. Also, the development of Hatton Park (to the North), Chase Meadow (to the South) and IBM development to the East. What is left of the Green Belt should be left alone.
2. Existing services eg School and GP Surgery should not be stretched further. The school is expanding but this is needed to resolve current stretched classroom numbers. The train station and it's facilities are currently used.
3. Existing infrastructure capacity should not be stretched further.
4.More traffic on and around the village would make the roads in the village even more dangerous for all residents, especially children. Especially those that walk to school. A large increase in families will create more traffic congestion on the main access road to the village. Particularly given that this is a traffic-light controlled road under a railway bridge.
5.The scale of development is inappropriate in relation to the existing village population.
6. Houses are likely to be purchased by London commuters which would put pressure Warwick Parkway Station to expand.
7. Land suggested for Gypsy sites should not take precedence over house building on them and I am against the compulsory purchase of private land to facilitate Gypsy sites.
