There is land around Kenilworth for mixed development of housing and commerce which would help the imbalalnce of polulation/jobs identified in the report and eliminate the need for further building in the already overdeveloped area south of the river.

Provide evidence to support assertion that people will work, shop, go to school and spend leisure time close to new homes in south of district and address the problems that would be created by additional traffic.
Allocate development required to meet local needs across whole district and avoid disproportionate impact on particular residents and communities.

It is questionable whether Coventry requires additional housing. The alloaction of 33,500 homes in Coventry is way in excess of other areas in the sub-region.

Allocation of land for industrial and commercial development is unrealistic, relying on optimistic forecasts for growth. This includes land at Ryton freed up by Peugeot closure and potential for windfall if Coventry Airport closes. Preferable to use this land than irreplaceable green belt.

If there is a need for housing at top of quota then small areas of development spread throughout district will have lowest impact on existing communities.
Since plan was prepared, world has suffered economic meltdown and will take a long time to recover. In this area commercial land lays undeveloped and buildings empty. Employment has been lost with demise of AP, Fords, Wolseley and IBM.
Nothing has changed since govt. Inspector found two years ago that the land at Woodside Farm and between Whitnash and Radford Semele was unsuitable for development.
More recent development is the new proposed railway station at Kenilworth - suggest development here makes more sense.

The need for the number of houses suggested has not ben proven.
The projected population grwoth is, in fact, so great, that it could seriously be considered sufficient for a new town to be built, which of course, would once again require real planners to be involved.

I am concerned with the amount of building on greenfield sites and its timescale-
Why has the number of 2700 houses to be built on greenfield sites outlined in the initial options for growth, risen so significantly? Does this challenge the legal viability of the Core Strategy? Why is the District not building at 60% of its required housing on brownfield land in lline with Government's 2003 recommendation. Studies suggests that allowing building on Greenfield land makes brownfield and inner city areas redevelopment economically un-viable. Concerned over the phasing of proposed house building at Ford's foundry.

At present there is a vast amount of empty commercial and residential property in the Warwick/Leamington area. Would be preferable for much of this to be taken over and converted into domestic dwellings, within existing communities. If land cannot be found to build a complete "new village" smaller pockets within the towns should be considered.

A more acceptable solution to the perceived need for more homes is to encourage small development around existing villages, develop brownfield sites and use the WDC site south of Coventry for WDC housing rather than Coventry housing.

Alternatives:

Build new halls of residence at Warwick University and release student rented houses in Leamington.
Utilise land north of Leamington around Blackdown and towards Stoneleigh - why is this land sacred green belt but not that near Bishops Tachbrook.
Utilise Ford foundry and Peugeot plant sites.

Object to site west of Europa Way and others south of Leamington:
More suitable sites:
Land around Warwick Parkway - close to M40, A46 and has rail connections, all without passing through Warwick and Leamington towns.
Villages could take their share preserving services and providing affordable housing.
University provides employment so north of Leamington most suitable and commuters to Coventry and Leamington would not have to cross river.
Finham and Kings Hill would have excellent connections.

The specific areas I object to are, the housing proposals on:
1) Land at Lower Heathcote Farm, south of Harbury Lane
And also:
2) Land South of Sydenham and east of Whitnash
3) Land at Woodside Farm, north of Harbury Lane, Whitnash
4) Land west of Europa Way, Warwick
My objections are based on the following:
Q2. Why have you reserved land at Finham for the Use of Coventry to meet their housing demands and to count towards satisfying their quota and not included this area as a potential for ameliorating the demands place on WDC?
Q3. Why isn't the brownfield site where the Puegot plant was located being considered for housing development?
Q4. Why isn't all housing demand placed upon the region not being centred around Coventry? Here is a city that badly needs an influx of new workers to the region, development of employment opportunities, retail centres and urban regeneration if Coventry is to emerge as a 21st century City. Why are new developments instead being concentrated around the rural and medieval towns and villages of Warwickshire?
I do believe that some housing may be needed for organic growth within individual communities; however, I feel this should be decided at a local level with the support of the local people. I urge you to rethink the Options radically; and focus imaginative thinking on leading the region in the regeneration of brownfield sites.

Objections to Large Scale Housing Developments in the following areas:
1) Land at Lower Heathcote Farm, south of Harbury Lane
2) Land South of Sydenham and east of Whitnash
3) Land at Woodside Farm, north of Harbury Lane, Whitnash
4) Land west of Europa Way, Warwick
The area around Warwick and Leamington and especially Bishops Tachbrook should be reserved for small scheme local developments (e.g. 5-15 new homes at a time or individual projects) that can be easily accommodated into our village without negatively impacting existing residents. All other options in these towns should be limited to brownfield sites.

In addition we have a major regional centre in need of resources, development and investment minutes up the road with a fantastic road and rail network, namely Coventry. I would expect there are a number of well sized brownfield sites around Coventry, as well as some large industrial sites on the outskirts of the town (e.g the old Peugot plant) that could easily accommodate such development projects.

I am writing this letter in order to express my strong objection to the following Core Strategy Preferred Options document:
Land at Woodside Farm north of Harbury Lane,Whtinash
Land south of Sydenham and east of Whitnash
Land at Lower Heathcote Farm south of Harbury Lane
Land west of Europa Way Warwick
My objections are based on the following reasons:
* Brownfield sites within Leamington and Coventry Airport should be explored and developers should not set house building policy.
* The council should legally challenge the amount of houses the government has demanded we build in the area. We live in a democracy and should not be dictated to in such a fashion.

The evidence base cited at 10.6 for this section includes no reference to the Warwickshire Historic Environment Record or to Historic Landscape Characterisation. Whilst the SHLAA is cited, the SHLAA only identifies Historic Environment constraints on the basis of designated assets (as per national policy); both PPG16 and draft PPS15 emphasise the importance of non-designated assets but the SHLAA methodology does not in itself facilitate consideration of such sites; therefore historic environment has not been fully considered in the determination of the preferred options.
However, whilst concerned in principle that the selection criteria do not allow for a proper consideration of Historic Environment, we do not object in principle to the majority of sites selected providing that proper appraisal is undertaken and allowance made where necessary for preservation of sites of national Importance (in the sense of the 1979 Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act and PPG16). In general the sites selected do not appear to be of primary importance in terms of Historic Landscape Character.

Clearly by their very nature there is insufficient information about such developments to comment in any detail about their impact at this stage much less plan school places to accommodate the additional pupils likely to result. Suffice to say that, given the forecast pressures on the supply of primary school places in many parts of the District and the need for early years provision, there will be implications as sites come forward. With regard to secondary school and post 16 provision this will be even more dependent upon the location of developments.

Build a New Town Instead If - and only if - there is ever a need to build the projected number of houses, it can only happen if there is employment. For that to happen the employment must be planned first, not last. We are talking of a whole new town with all the support that such a significant increase in people would require. So why not do just that? Build a new town where it will not harm what is already established. The cost would be significantly less. Over the years there has been systematic destruction of the community spirit of our small villages and towns by large-scale development of new homes without employment. The result is traffic chaos as they commute to work.

I object to the plans to build a housing estate of 3250 home at Kings Hill, Finham as shown on the above document.
Whilst you have indicated where land could be developed, you do admit to being subject to testing issues of viability... yet these testing issues are not defined.
As I understand it Central Government have imposed the remit of building new homes and not modernise existing empty homes. An easier option than modernising older vacant properties.
