This is a site with recent planning permission for up to 220 dwellings, open space and play space consistent with the RDS and should be shown as a commitment opposed to a Local Plan site proposal.

The site:

* In accordance with paragraph 5.1.32 of the RDS contribute significantly to the 5 year supply of housing land;

* can deliver an appropriate and justified development in a manner consistent with national policy. The site is deliverable / developable in the terms identified at footnotes 11 and 12 of paragraph 47 of the NPPF; and

* is available now, offers a suitable location for development

Gallagher Estates are committed to the delivery of the site. All constraints have been properly taken into account through the application process and a sustainable development in economic, environmental and social terms incorporating up to 220 dwellings and attendant open space and green infrastructure can be provided in a manner consistent with the emerging RDS.

It is also of note that the Council has granted planning permission on land adjacent to the West Warwick Gates site for a care village. It has therefore been established that this parcel of land, located at Earls Rivers Avenue adjacent to Gallagher House off Gallagher Way is suitable, deliverable and developable consistent with the provisions of the NPPF.
Additional Proposed Housing Site:

In addition Gallagher Estates own and control a small parcel of land located between the existing property known as Longacre and Gallagher Way.

Given that the land at West Warwick Gates and the Earls Rivers Avenue is committed residential development it would be appropriate for this small isolated pocket of unused land to be allocated for residential development in the next iteration of the Local Plan.
