I highly Object to this Housing Plan. I think it will completely ruin the area. I am disgusted to think that we the people who live around that area were not consulted? I think regardless of what council this falls under i do think the area of finham should of been consulted.

Building on green belt sacrilege - Land in green belt would destroy buffer between Coventry and Kenilworth.
Roads already busy.School oversubscribed. Sewerage would overflow, smells from sewage works. Access from railway line not an option in view of re-opening of station at Kenilworth.

Problems with:
Natural springs - hundreds of them
Flooding from Finham Brook
Aviation fuel line from Kingsbury to Heathrow Airport flows under Kings Hill
Mining from Coventry Colliery and Daw Mill towards Kenilworth.
New Coventry sewer complex under Kings Hill.
Natural environments, including rare orchids, bats, newts, badgers, muntjacs and many more: must be saved.
Road access too narrow
Shops nearly all closed (too expensive)
Too many existing empty houses
Coventry is shrinking not growing due to lack of manufacturing work. Do not need expensive housing when there are brownfield sites at Peugeot plant and Baginton Airport.
Green belt must be retained.

Use of green belt unbelievable. Whatever the use of seeking to protect from urban sprawl is swept away by artbitary bereaucratic directive from govt? Green belt between Coventry and Kenilworth particularly sensitive - already less than half a mile. University already threatening this without new housing.
Infrastructure. Traffic already queuing trying to exit Birches Lane to St John's Island - can only get worse.
A452 to Leamington one of the busiest single carriageway roads in Warwickshire - plans abandoned to 'dual' it.
Railway cuts through Kenilworth - access to town centre or from town centre to Warwick and Birmingham must find way over line. Results in lots of traffic using bridges.
Birches Lane and Glasshouse Lane have become rat runs, are narrow and residential in character - further development would make this intolerable.
Loss of open space over period of years:
Windy Arbour from Glasshouse Lane to Windy Arbour and Park Hill
Bullimore Grove estate
Lawrence Gardens
Gloster Drive
Stickley's Yard
Lulworth Park
Convent School grounds
Newey Drive
Albion Street old Basptist Church Hall
Cherry Orchard
Abbey End, Mulberry Court
Crackley Road (La Reine Gardens)
Dalehouse Lane/Best Ave/Garlick Drive
Abbey End shops
Talisman Square, also other infill at:
Barrowfield Lane, Collett Walk, Barrowfield Court, Leamington Road
These have changed landscape of Kenilworth with loss of open space.
Stop encroachment of Coventry and change of character in Kenilworth

Primarily in agricultural use - unless soil is protected there is danger of local flooding and environmental damage caused by lack of carbon dioxide conversion.
Area contains many animal and bird species requiring our protection, not destruction of their habitat.
Surrounding area is not able to cope with increase in housing or traffic.
Coventry City Council could find brown field sites within boundary if pushed.

Housing predictions are at best, educated guesses. Local govt. then expected to toe the line and look for possible sites. Quality being sacrificed for achieving numbers dicatated by distant govt. Decisions should be made by those living and working in an area.
Brown field should be developed first and needs careful monitoring to ensure that full capacity is achieved before green belt land considered.
Green fields between Coventry and Kenilworth is essential to quality of life of both communities.
Currently used for crops and livestock as well as habitat to wildlife, which is disappearing elsewhere.
In current economic climate, govt. putting 'cart before the horse'. People need employment to earn money to buy homes. Who will be living in new homes? Until resurgence in the economy, picture is unclear - another reason for more measured approach to housing development.

Lack of demonstrable need for new dwellings when we are in downturn with no signs of jobs returning to Coventry area.
Loss of greenbelt land when it has not been demonstrated that all available brown field sites have been used.
Lack of public consultation in Finham area.
Unbalanced and unhealthy allocation of majority of housing to Coventry, compared to Solihull and Warwick as agreed by sub regional forum. Absurd that Coventry has to build 33,000 houses when Birmingham, a much bigger city has to build 50,000.
