The Kenilworth Society considers that the removal of these sites is unsound because:
a) The Local Planning Authority has not involved the community in the preparation of this part of the Plan. The "Revised Development Strategy" that was published for public consultation in June 2013 retained all three sites in the green belt.
b) There do not appear to be good planning reasons for the removal of these sites from the green belt. In the case of the Coventry Gateway, the reason seems to be the local planning authority's retrospective justification of consent to a planning application. The Draft Local Plan does not provide evidence to support the change. Nor does Sustainability Appraisal Report assess the merits or otherwise of removing the sites from the green belt. It merely states that they are within the green belt.
Reasons for Objection
The Kenilworth Society considers that the removal of these sites is unsound because:
a) The Local Planning Authority has not involved the community in the preparation of this part of the Plan. The "Revised Development Strategy" that was published for public consultation in June 2013 retained all three sites in the green belt. With regard to the land near Coventry Airport (Coventry Gateway) Para. 5.5.8 of the 2013 document specifically said "...It is not proposed that this Local Plan amends Green Belt boundaries in this area..."
b) There do not appear to be good planning reasons for the removal of these sites from the green belt. In the case of the Coventry Gateway, the reason seems to be the local planning authority's retrospective justification of consent to a planning application. The Draft Local Plan does not provide evidence to support the change. Nor does Sustainability Appraisal Report assess the merits or otherwise of removing the sites from the green belt.
