WDC should revisit its Greenbelt Policy and release sites to the north of Warwick and Leamington which would reduce the pressure on the south of the District to absorb all forms of development during the new local plan period.
WDC should be requiring that Gypsy and Traveller sites are developed within the proposed new housing developments or other brownfield sites in Warwick, Leamington and Kenilworth which would allow for full integration into local communities with appropriately planned facilities and services (schools, doctors' surgeries etc) accessible by foot and all forms of public and private transport.
WDC should consider allocating an area of land to the south of Warwick and Leamington as Greenbelt to ensure that the villages in the south of the district retain their rural identities and are not, over time, absorbed by the expansion of Leamington and Warwick.
