Increase in surface water drainage and sewerage volume required and flooding. Where are the schools going and secondary provision. Also doctors provision
Where are the buses going.
Will there be extra police persons.
The loss of countryside wildlife and trees, and bushes, is there going to be any replanting

Proposed site access from Offchurch Road is ridiculous as is Parklands Avenue. Junction at top of Windmill Hill is already a problem; more cars just not acceptable. Cubbington will become car park.
Problems with flooding. Drainage system would require upgrading.
How will schools cope? What about doctors surgeries? Will be over crowding.
Cubbington residents do not want to be joined to Leamington. Village will be destroyed.
What about wildlife and environment, extra electricity/gas being used; extra cars on roads? Loss of public footpaths.
Must remain green belt. Working farms should be retained.
No-one has thought about this and the problems others will experience should this site be developed
The proposed site access from Offchurch Road is ridiculous as is the idea of an entrance from Parklands Avenue. These access points will put even more traffic onto Offchurch Road, Windmill Hill, Rugby Road. The junction at the top of Windmill Hill is already a problem reference accidents; to have more cars approach the junction on a daily basis is just not acceptable. The junction would not be able to cope effectively. The roundbabout does not help with the accidents still happening. Cubbington will become one big car park.
The problems with flooding would be enhanced and even more homes would be flooded. The drainage system etc. would require a great deal of upgrading should this site be used.
How will our local schools cope? What will happen to doctors surgeries? There will be far too many people, over crowding.
Cubbington residents do not want to be joined to Leamington Spa. Our village will be destroyed.
What about all the wildlife that has made this their home, also what about the environment as a whole with all the extra homes, the extra electricity/gas being used; the extra cars on roads to name just a few? Local people will lose public footpaths should the site be used.
This site must not be passed as a site for dwellings. It must remain as part of the green belt and not be built on. Working farms are very few. Should we not be encouraging our local farmers to continue their good work for the next generation.
Farming is an art and how will children learn if you continue to destroy a working farm?

Flooding - prone to flooding due to run off. Drainage system cannot cope now.
Amenities - Affect on local amenities, schools, doctors etc We do not have a local doctor or pharmacy. Expanding schools will exacerbate traffic problems
Only large employer is Thwaites who has been cutting back workforce. Most jobs appear to be at Sydenham/Heathcote.
Cubbington and Lillington are two distinct communities. Joining them destroy village life. Development will ruin country environment for children.
What assurance that development will stop there?
Green belt currently protects against unrestricted sprawl of a large built up area. Would lose footpaths and wildlife.
Flooding - As it is well known, the bottom of the village is prone to flooding. This is reportedly due mainly to run off. Under heavy rain conditions, it is common now for numerous drain covers in New Street and Price Road to lift. This has also happened at the bottom of Windmill Hill. If this site is mainly concrete and tarmac, how much more run off is there going to be? What are the implications for residents at the lower part of the village when all this extra water starts to build up? The drainage system cannot cope now.
Amenities - What steps will be taken to address the affect on local amenities, schools, doctors etc? We do not have a local doctor or pharmacy and to expand the current schools will only exacerbate traffic problems at these two sites. What about the sustainability of employment? The only large employer in the area is Thwaites. They have been cutting back on their workforce. Most of the jobs would appear to be at Sydenham or Heathcote, both of them at the other end of town.
Cubbington and Lillington are two distinct communities. Joining them up will destroy village life as many residents of Cubbington know it. I moved here 40 years ago to bring my children up in a country environment. My grandson is now being brought up similarly. This development will ruin that and for many more children in the future.
What assurance do we have that the development will stop there? Will it extend past and possibly include Thwaites? Will it eventually sprawl all the way to Offchurch?
This green belt currently protects against unrestricted sprawl of a large built up area and contains many well used footpaths and a wide variety of wildlife. These are important to us, the residents of Cubbington. They will be gone forever

Serious potential for flooding already exists in parts of Cubbington. Development of this type will increase this problem even further. Cubbington is a village in its own right with over a thousand years of history. It has its own distinct community and must not be allowed to be absorbed by urban sprawl (also increase in traffic).

I feel we do need affordable homes. People are having to move away from friends and family because no affordable homes. We do need to think of others, not just ourselves. I'm lucky enough to have a council property. I have spoke to many people in the village, they said not complaining about houses, but flooding and traffic. i feel this can be solved. this about wildlife find other places to go.
So come on lets have more work for area and more trade for local shops.

The development of Glebe Farm would cause Cubbington to lose its identity and become just another district of Leamington Spa. Wildlife including deer, fox and badger woulld lose their habitat. Following the closure of the post office in Kelvin Road, congestion has increased in Cubbington village with parking at a premium. Further housing development would exacerabate the situation.

My main concern is the chance of more flooding in the area. We have had two severe floodings in the last few years through unproper drainage problems - the thought of more buildings being built is very worrying indeed.
Also, village life as we know it could be lost forever. Please do not allow this to happen. the green belt between Lillington and Cubbington must be protected to safeguard our lovely countryside and wildlife

Effect on wildlife would be devastating. Not to mention losing well used footpaths to big roads and more traffic causing congestion.
Our schools will suffer due to overload of children. Doctors surgery in the area will become pressurised due to excess patients.
Will be thousands more people travelling to and from the village making it more like a busy town or estate. Would be devastated to lose our little village

After flooding in New Street, Knightly Close, Price Road in Lower Cubbington,
Additional pluvial flooding (run-off) would put these areas at greater risk.
Additional traffic using Welsh Road and Offchurch Road would be excessive, creating risk of accidents, injury or even death.
We in village value independence as a community and would like to preserve it. Community should decide what development is needed not some government directive.
Enough of our village has been lost to development. Small percentage was necessary, estate of this scale would be end of Cubbington village. Would be too convenient to say yes rather than recycle brown sites.
After the relatively recent flooding in New Street, Knightly Close, Price Road in Lower Cubbington, I consider that the additional pluvial flooding (run-off) would put these areas at an even greater risk of flooding.
Also the additional traffic using Welsh Road and Offchurch Road would be excessive, creating risk of accidents, injury or even death.
We in the village value our independence as a community and would like to preserve it and the community should decide what, if any, development is needed not some government directive designed to meet targets.
I have lived in this village all my life nearly 55 years. Enough of our village has been lost to development over the years. I accept that a small percentage of this was necessary, but to build an estate of this scale would be the end of Cubbington as a village. I feel it would be too convenient to say yes to this proposal and appease profit motivated developers, rather than recycle appropriate brown sites.

The Cubbington Road, Windmill Hill and Kenilworth Roads in Cubbington are already horrendous to navigate at rush hour times. This development can only bring more traffic!!

Recognise need for housing, but Cubbington site unsuitable. Soil is clay and its' inpenetrable properties are prone to cause flooding. Area has clay sub layer. Heavy rainfall sends surface water running down fields into road drains. Converge in village and system unable to cope with volume in short time.
More drainage pipes would cause more stress in rainfall periods and make flooding more common.
Distress to residents in village is not worth value of new housing. Main concern is for village people. Suggest choose another site more suitable for new housing
Although I recognise the need for more housing, I do not think that the Cubbington site that has been proposed is suitable. My main objection is that the soil is clay and its' inpenetrable properties are prone to cause flooding which we have already experienced in Cubbington village. The whole area has this clay sub layer and heavy rainfall sends surface water running down the fields into the road drains. They converge in the village and the system is unable to cope with the large volume in the short time it occurs. As evidenced with the heavy flooding experienced in the lowest roads in Cubbington a few years ago.
To add more drainage pipes to the existing system would cause more stress in rainfall periods and make flooding a much more common occurance.
The terrible distress caused to residents in the village when their homes were flooded is not worth the value of new housing to people who need it. Our main concern is for the village people and to protect them form flooding so we have to suggest you choose another site more suitable for a new housing development

No support for this housing development whatsoever.
A green belt is a protected area of open countryside around a town, so why build on it. There would be no Leamington, Lillington and Cubbington, but just urban sprawl of Leamington spreading towards Coventry. If it were to happen where would all the surface water drain to in winter? Cubbington is prone to flooding in New Street and Offchurch Road by Thwaites. This vast estate would make matters worse. Cleaning the roadside ditches and leaving a wall of dredged soil - as is the case - between the road and the ditches will not be enough to solve the problem but it will keep the water on the road until such time when the soil is washed back into the ditches then we are back to square one!
More problems with traffic and road congestion, Leicester Street Hill, Parklands Avenue, Crown Way and Windmill Hill could not cope with the extra traffic. People would use the 'back route' (rat run) from Leamington through Offchurch village, the blind left hand turn by The Stag and the narrow single lane bridge, would be a nightmare for villagers - not to mention builders lorries and concrete mixer lorries trying to negotiate the canal bridge as well. Refurbish and use all the empty properties and put a tight restriction on immigration and we wouldn't need to build on green belt land.

Environmentally the road infrastructure could not possibly cope with such a large increase in traffic

There would be no more Lillington or Cubbington just a sprawling mass which would further reduce any feeling of community which exists within the defined area

Loss of identity for Cubbington residents. Housing would merge village into sprawl of Leamington. Green belt between Lilllington/Cubbington must be protected to safeguard countryside from encroachment and maintain distinct communities.
Fears of flooding will be increased due to additional run off. Impervious heavy clay subsoil causes site to flood. Building would worsen problem.
Traffic implications horrendous.Will have truly massive impact on local congestion. Area not suitable to support increase in traffic and will cause disruption to Cubbington residents.
Environmental impact on wildlife, as well used footpaths disappear. Extra pressure placed on local schools and doctors.
Quality of life will disappear.
The proposed development of alternative site 3 Glebe Farm Cubbington would mean a total loss of identity for the people of Cubbington as the proposed housing would merge the village into the unrestricted sprawl of the Leamington conurbation. We believe that the green belt between Lilllington and Cubbington must be protected to safeguard the countryside from encroachment and maintain the two distinct communities of Lillington and Cubbington.
The very real fears of flooding will be significantly increased due to the additional run off of rainwater caused by the loss of green land. The impervious heavy clay subsoil causes the site to be prone to flooding, so building on this land would only worsen the existing problem. If this development should be approved the potential for flooding could be for worse than the disaster which hit Cubbington three years ago.
Traffic implications of the scheme are horrendous and will have a truly massive impact on local congestion, in particular at the roundabout at the top of Windmill Hill/Rugby Road, where many accidents already occur. This area is really not suitable to support the significant increase in traffic from the thousands more houses travelling to and from the village at 'rush hour' morning and evening and will cause a great deal of disruption to all Cubbington residents.
The environmental impact of such a huge development on wildlife, as the old fields and well used footpaths disappear, is a real concern as is the great deal of extra pressure that would be placed on local schools and doctors if such a large scale settlement was to take place.
We believe that if the area is not protected the quality of life for the people who live in Cubbington will disappear forever and ask you therefore to refuse the proposed development of Glebe Farm Cubbington

I wish to object to the proposed development of Glebe Farm, Cubbington, as I believe that the green belt between Lillington and Cubbington must be protected to prevent the unrestricted sprawl of the large built up area of Leamington Spa. It is important to safeguard the countryside from encroachment and maintain the two distinct communities of Lillington and Cubbington village.
Cubbington has suffered disastrous flooding in recent years and this is an issue that has still not been properly resolved. The very real fear of flooding can only be significantly increased if the proposed building of thousands of new homes on impervious heavy clay subsoil takes place due to the additional run off of rainwater caused by the loss of green land. This would only worsen the existing village flooding problem.
Such a large scale settlement would, of course, put a great deal of pressure on local schools and doctors, which will have a detrimental effect on the people who live in the village and have a massive impact on wildlife as old fields and well used footpaths disappear, If not protected, village life as we know it will be gone forever.
A further worry is the horrendous implications this proposed scheme will have on traffic for the local area, in particular at the roundabout at the top of Windmill Hill where many accidents have already occured. I believe this area is not at all suitable to support the extra traffic that will be generated around the village during 'rush hour' both morning and evening should this development go ahead.
I hope you will take into consideration the above very real concerns and objections and reject the proposed developmnet of alternative site 3 Glebe Farm, Cubbington

Loss of irreplaceable green belt land. We must retain as much agricultural land as possible to feed us now and in future.
Inrastructure will be put under great strain e.g. doctors, schools and loss of village community.
The roads will become no more than a crawl when people are going to work or coming home.
If I had wanted to live in a town I would move into Leamington.
Brownfield sites should always be used before encroaching on green belt which is ultimately our food store
I object to this proposal because of the loss of irreplaceable green belt land. Without agriculture food has to be imported at great cost in terms of both money and the environment. We must retain as much agricultural land as possible to feed us now and in the future. As well as this, the infrastructure of the area will be put under great strain e.g. doctors, schools as well as the loss of yet another village community. Great sprawling estates never have it and never get a community atmosphere.
The roads will become no more than a crawl when people are going to work or coming home. This situation was highlighted recently when roads had to be closed to replace the gas mains.
If I had wanted to live in a town I would move into Leamington and this proposal gives everyone less and less choice as to how they live.
I consider brownfield sites should always be used first before encroaching on green belt which is ultimately our food store
