Warwickshire County Council (WCC) supports the principle of comprehensively developing strategic sites, to ensure the provision of appropriate uses and necessary infrastructure across a number of different land ownerships through good design. However WCC does not consider that the infrastructure requirements for 'Land at Myton / West of Europa Way' listed in Local Plan Publication Draft Policy DS15 are necessary and justified by a robust evidence
base and has made separate representations in this respect to Local Plan Publication Draft policies DS12 and DS14.

The policy approach of Policy DS15 is supported by Barwood. It is important that
the masterplans for the strategic urban extensions are approved by the Council to
ensure site deliverability. However, Barwood consider that the policy lacks
clarification on the process by which the Development Brief or Masterplan will be
approved.

In a separate objection to Policy DS11 Allocated Housing Sites, we have commented on behalf of our clients, on the site at Thickthorn, Kenilworth. It is considered this site should be deleted from the plan and replaced with land south of Gallows Hill, Warwick. Accordingly, a modification is required to Policy DS15 to delete reference to Thickthorn at sub-paragraph (e) and replace this with land south of Gallows Hill.

Support and welcome the opportunity to provide a development brief or masterplan for the proposed development at Red House Farm. However this requirement should not preclude development coming forward in advance of such document being agreed with the Council. As drafted, this policy is unsound as it may cause unnecessary delay to housing delivery and it is therefore not positively prepared. To make it sound the policy should include some flexibility about the timing of the production of a development brief or masterplan. Any development brief or masterplan should be considered acceptable for the Red House Farm site if it excludes the Glebe Farm land.

With regards to infrastructure requirements for shops/ local centres / community facilities, conditions on any planning consent should ensure this provision is constructed and open at an early stage of any development.

Policy DS15 makes no mention of the police infrastructure that will be required to support the development of the Strategic Sites. This is surprising and of concern for two reasons.
Firstly, the Council's 'Draft Infrastructure Delivery Plan - April 2014' makes reference to the following infrastructure requirements under the heading 'Emergency Services': -
*Police: Safer Neighbourhood Team Police Offices - 3 additional offices at Europa Way, Lower Heathcote Farm and Thickthorn
*Other police equipment and costs - A range of other "CIL Compliant" costs including vehicles, communications technology and surveillance equipment, training, uniform and personal equipment
This confirms that the Council accepts that additional police infrastructure will be required to deliver policing services to the strategic sites.
Secondly, at the time of writing strategic site H02 (South of Harbury Lane, including the former sewage works), the H23 site (Bishops Tachbrook - Land south of the school), unallocated sites by Europa Way and Bishop's Tachbrook have all been subject to the following recent planning applications: -
*W/14/0300 - The Asps, Warwick - 900 dwellings - Barwood Strategic Land II LLP - Refused - 30 May 2014 (Appendix 1)
*W/14/0661 - Land at Lower Heathcote Farm - 785 dwellings - Gallagher Estates (see Appendix 2 of the full submission)
*W/14/0681 - Land South of Gallows Hills - 450 dwellings - Gallagher Estate (see full submission Appendix 3)
*W/14/0689 - Land off Oakley Wood Road - 150 dwellings - Bloor Homes (see full submission Appendix 4)
*W/14/0763 - Land off Seven Acre Close - 25 dwellings - A.C. Lloyd Homes Ltd ( see full submission Appendix 5)
To each application we submitted representations in respect of the need for the development concerned to provide police infrastructure. These are enclosed as per the appendices indicated above. At the time of writing, four of the planning applications are still in the process of being determined.
As planning applications are made in relation to the other strategic sites, we will submit similar representations requesting developer contributions towards police infrastructure.
Given all of the above we contend that as presently drafted, Policy DS15 undermines the delivery of the infrastructure necessary to deliver policing services to the strategic sites. It is therefore ineffective and unsound currently.

Land at Lower Heathcote Farm (part of the South of Harbury Lane proposed allocation) can come forward for development early, delivering housing in a manner consistent with the objective of boosting supply and making a contribution to the 5 year housing land supply. The requirement for either development briefs or master plans to be approved by the Local Authority creates a risk that unnecessary delay will prevail. Clarity is provided to bring forward sites through other policies in the plan therefore the requirement for master plans and briefs is not necessary. There are mechanisms in place to ensure that the necessary infrastructure is delivered through the application process and the proposals map is clear about what infrastructure is required and where without the need for a master plan. Policy DM1 assists this. In summary, there are policies and mechanisms in place to ensure the delivery of infrastructure on the strategic sites and that high quality and integrated development is delivered.

Policy DS15 should be amended so that reference to Policy DS14 (community hub and health facilities) is deleted - compliant with separately submitted representations objecting to Policy DS14.
