I could only support the sports complex element if the proposal is based on robust evidence and shown to be finically independent of any WDC subsidies

Considers the principle of locating the medical centre on WDC land as appropriate and justified and has included this in the recently submitted planning application in response to pre application discussions with NHS property services. It also considers that the County land may be appropriate for local retail facilities subject to evidence of need, market interest and viability. However WCC considers that the proposal set out in Local Plan Publication Draft policy DS14 for the allocation of land in the location shown on the Policies Map, and explained in the supporting text at paragraphs 2.59-2.64, for four specific community uses as a 'Community Hub' is not positively-prepared, justified, effective or consistent with National Policy. The proposals map does not clearly indicate the proposed area. the publicly-available evidence
base documents do not set out a rationale for why all the proposed community uses included in the policy are: a) necessary; b) required to be located to the west of Europa Way; and c) best located within the area marked with a dotted black line on the Policies Map. No justification for floorspace threshold or location of proposed convenience store.
No justification for the need for, size for and specific location of the separate community meeting place and community sports complex and complementary uses.
WCC is not a willing landowner in relation to suggestions that County land could be used to relocate Leamington Football Club. There is no evidence that consideration has been given to the cost and viability of such a scheme, the IDP does not include costings for a small stadium. The Transport assessment does not consider the impacts of a small stadium.

We do not support the Council's proposals for a new community sports complex on land West of Europa Way. It is understood the proposed sports complex may include a stadium for Leamington FC with complimentary uses, but we are not aware of any detailed proposals for, or evidence base to support a new community sports complex on Land West of Europa Way. We feel such a stadium would raise residential amenity concerns, funding issues, and the land identified is needed for the school campus.
It is recognised that if land is to be made available for the new school campus in the same location as the proposed community hub, then alternative space needs to be found for other social infrastructure e.g. neighbourhood retail, health facility, and community meeting hall, which can be provided on the site possibly co-located on the Myton School campus.
