I am writing to formally object to the proposed development on site reference ID 160 as outlined in the South Warwickshire Local Plan (SWLP).
I am a concerned resident.
My objections are based on several key concerns:

Green Belt Impact: The site is located in an area that contributes significantly to the Green Belt. According to the HELAA results, this site has a moderate contribution to Green Belt purposes. Developing this site would undermine the integrity of the Green Belt, which is crucial for preventing urban sprawl and maintaining the character of our rural communities.

Infrastructure Strain: The proposed development of 6,000 homes will place an unsustainable burden on local infrastructure, including roads, schools, and healthcare facilities. The current infrastructure is not equipped to handle such a significant increase in population, leading to congestion and reduced quality of services for existing residents.

Environmental Concerns: The development poses a threat to local biodiversity and natural habitats. The area is home to various species of flora and fauna that could be adversely affected by large-scale construction activities. It is essential to preserve these natural environments for future generations.

Lack of Deliverability Assurance: The site's deliverability is questionable, as highlighted in the SWLP's preferred strategy document. Without clear assurances and a detailed plan for sustainable development, proceeding with this proposal is premature and potentially detrimental.

Community Impact: The scale of the proposed development is not in keeping with the character of the existing community. It risks altering the village's identity and could lead to a loss of community cohesion.

I urge the planning committee to reconsider the inclusion of site ID 160 in the SWLP and explore alternative sites that do not compromise the Green Belt or overwhelm local infrastructure.

Thank you for considering my objections. I look forward to your response.
