Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

Hampton Magna and Budbrooke
Ojections to erosion of Green Belt to build 150 homes and encircle area with traveller sites.
Budbrooke already has Green Belt eroded by building and expansion of railway station/car parking which has had impact on traffic and parking by rail users unwilling to pay to park.
Village already used as a "rat run" and further housing/development of traveller sites will increase volume,with more "red light" runners from impatient commuters and eventually fatalities.
Chase Meadow, Hatton Park and developments on land near Budbrooke industrial estate already threatening village character. Development will mean Hampton Magna will no longer be a village but become part of conurbation.
Travellers choose to live their lifestyle and should purchase their own land and build houses themselves if they wish to be settled. Government should not use taxpayers money to compulsory purchase Green Belt land for this purpose.
% of developments (housing and traveller sites) in regard to size of village is inappropriate.
Current school places already oversubscribed; medical services fully utilised. Few facilities for young people/families.
Plans contradictory. Green belt will not be protected and countryside will be eroded.
Brownfield sites have not been considered for development before giving them over to commercial development.

Testun llawn:

Hampton Magna and Budbrooke

I wish to register my objections to the new local plan which includes the erosion of the Green Belt to build a further 150 homes and encircle the area with traveller sites.

My objections are based on the following:

Budbrooke has already had the Green Belt eroded by the building and expansion of Chiltern railway station and car parking development which already has a huge impact on traffic in and around the village and associated parking by rail users unwilling to pay to park, causing obstruction and danger within the village. Further development will exacerbate this problem.

The village is already used as a "rat run" and further housing/development of traveller sites will raise this to a much larger volume, which, as there is a single track access to the village under the rail bridge will result in more incidence of "red light" runners from impatient commuters and eventually fatalities.

Chase Meadow, Hatton Park and developments on land near Budbrooke industrial estate are already threatening the loss of village character and further development will mean Hampton Magna will not longer be a village but become part of the Warwick/Leamington conurbation.

Travellers choose to live their lifestyle and should purchase their own land and build houses themselves if they wish to be a settled community, and government should not use taxpayers money to compulsory purchase Green Belt land for this purpose. I am taxpayer and object to this use of my taxes. I paid for my own home and land. So must they.

The percentage of the developments (housing and traveller sites) in regard to the size of the current village is totally inappropriate.

Current school places are already oversubscribed, medical services fully utilised and not viable to take more. There are few facilities for young people or families.

Plans are contradictory to themselves. Green belt will not be protected and countryside will be eroded.

Brownfield sites have not been considered for all developments (including large supermarket developments such as Morrisons and Aldi) before giving them over to commercial development where there are already similar businesses.
