Baginton Housing Needs Survey & Parish Plan should be considered as part of RDS.
Housing Needs survey identified a need for 17 social housing properties.
Parish Plan consultation showed almost 9 out of 10 respondents are in favour of modest growth and new houses (up to 20) for local people but to retain the nature and character of the village and help support local businesses. The Local Plan should take into account village desires under the Localism Act.
The 70-90 houses proposed for Baginton is an unacceptable and disproportionate increase which will change the character of the village which doesn't have the necessary facilities such as a GP and schools to support it.
CPRE and WRW Forum, which give a clear and compelling case for the overall housing forecast to be reduced from 12300 to 5400 homes. Providing 5400 rather than 12300 new homes would mean only small number of affordable/retirement homes as identified in Parish's Plan and Housing Needs Survey.
