The volume of houses built in the area during my lifetime is staggering, and now the council wants to further destroy the county’s character by adding more. Progress shouldn't be measured by the number of houses built, but by the quality of life for the people who live here and pay taxes to make it a pleasant place. Building new towns that nobody wants is not the solution. We should focus on developing urban areas instead, where infrastructure and services are already in place, rather than continuing to encroach on our countryside and natural spaces.

Large scale new town developments on airfields and brown-field industrial land would be better than continually tagging on extra housing, field by field, to current towns and villages that has a very negative impact on their character (no longer quiet, quaint and pleasing for example).

Long Marston Airfield development should be finished and even extended and another great option that wasn't in the list would be Gaydon as that already has a large and proper M40 connection.

Whilst Rosconn Group consider New Settlements can play an important role in contributing the future housing needs of the area, due to the long lead-in time before housing is actually delivered, their contribution is only likely to make a contribution to housing needs during the second half of the plan period. It is also essential that the selected site or sites are viable and deliverable. As such, our view is that only one New Settlement would be appropriate, forming part of a mixed portfolio of site sizes to ensure housing delivery is secured throughout the plan period.

We support recognition that new settlements and expanding settlements are required to meet the housing and employment growth requirements in the most sustainable way. However, these large-scale proposals should be complemented by smaller scale allocations in sustainable locations that are deliverable in the short term.

The release of 100ha from JLR appears plausible for reallocation recognising the development designation in place saving the need to look for other virgin land in the area. However,J12 appears to have attracted greater volumes than expected with traffic from local roads towards the junction. Poor transport integration remains challenging, the strategy should be to align freight over rail and utilisation of the DIRFT Hub and exploit land opportunities closer to the hub and Coventry Airport

If we are to build the exaggerated number of homes dictated by Westminster then some new settlement(s) are probably needed. The main existing settlements at Warwick, Leamington and Kenilworth cannot cope with all that appear to be 'required'.
The target seem illogical. The census data does not indicate growth in population in South Warwickshire that will require that number. How many schools, healthcare, leisure and retail acres will be needed to provide for all these new residents, where will they work? How can the power, communications and infrastructure needed for sustainable homes be provided in the county?

Leamington has already exploded in the past five years. The roads are jammed, the services are overstretched and the vast housing developements and population explosion is changimg the character of the area and making it unpleasant. Infrastructure cannot cope with all the new 29,000 homes being concentrated in a few massive developments in the area particularly south Leamington and Whitnash which is gridlocked. These houses need to be fully dispersed across the whole of warwickshire with every town and village taking a handful of them. This would be a fairer, more sustainable appproach as the infratrusture will always play catch-up.

Large 'settlements' (commuter new towns) on greenbelt land with poor/inadequate public transport links, no scope to improve essential road connections should not be considered. Funding will not be available to meet infrastructure needs thus placing enormous stress on neighbouring towns. Limited employment options, there is no appetite for industrial units locally - units empty/to let for years. Business sites in Henley converted into housing: numerous empty/to let offices in Stratford/Warwick/Leamington. The destruction of quality farmland, wildlife habitats and decline of rural villages is too high a price to pay for further isolated and poorly connected car dependent developments.

The approach is flawed in relation to several of the potential sites there is no clear evidence that trips can be predominantly internalised, that the infrastructure necessary for this will be provided and that transport within the site will be environmentally friendly eg. the wide use of electric vehicles is by no means certain for the foreseeable future. Also, some sites would have little opportunity for employment within them.
With regard to site BW the above applies. Residents would need to leave the settlement for daily needs especially employment but the surrounding transport infrastructure would not support this.

A number of proposals are adjacent to the train line as if this makes them more suitable but will give the impression of overdevelopment and Warwickshire consisting almost entirely of suburbs, not the rural beauty it is currently. Its unclear why new proposals don't acknowledge or take advantage of other infrastructure already in development such as HS2. Some of the proposed settlements are also significant in scale, representing new small towns in close proximity to existing towns where existing infrastructure is already insufficient. Developers will build housing first even if amenities are planned causing shortages of key services for all.

Warwick district is much smaller than Stratford although it has a similar population and the density is thus far greater.
However, the housing allocation for Warwick district is similar to that for Stratford.
As this is a joint plan this makes no sense and is thoroughly unfair.

Yes, so long as people can fulfil most of their day-to-day requirements from within the new settlement, using the 20-minute neighbourhood principles. This means that schools are provided along with shops and community buildings along with green spaces to enjoy. A much better option to reduce car use and build a community as opposed to using up protected green belt land and urban sprawl.

Given the time it is likely to take for large-scale new settlements to come forward, as acknowledged in the draft text, and in light of the joint councils' expected shortfall of housing supply under the 2024 Standard Method, stronger support is needed for the development of small and medium sites which can be developed in a shorter timescale.

The Preferred Options Consultation is still suggesting that the identified strategic growth locations could accommodate in excess of the housing need and it not expected that all these sites will be needed, and further work will be done for the Submission Version to identify the areas/land to be allocated. So at this stage despite knowing the number of homes that need to be provided there is still no clear direction of where these sites will be, despite saying that all the Sites are not required.

The ‘new settlements’ in the existing District Local Plans (Long Marston Airfield, Gaydon-Lighthorne Heath, Kingshill between Kenilworth and Coventry) should be fully developed and then additional ones added. New settlements offer a viable alternative to the growth of existing settlements, planned and sited with appropriate infrastructure for optimal sustainable development. These will create self-sufficient communities with the provision of shops, new doctors’ surgeries, etc. and avoid the merging of existing towns and villages with the resulting loss of identity and character.

No, we fail to understand why some of the specific new settlement locations have been chosen and how disconnected they are from the Call for Sites exercises. We would also question the integrity of inviting further Call for Sites submissions where none were previously submitted. Were prospective new settlements to be identified then they should not only have drawn on the Call for Sites results but, also have considered the site of former RAF Honiley as a potential location. Our clients regard this omission as serious and unjustified.

The approach laid out in Draft Policy Direction 2 broadly aligns with Paragraph 77 of the Framework. However, the need for significant new infrastructure and facilities to support the Potential New Settlements will mean that these growth locations are unlikely to be delivered until towards the end of the Plan Period to 2050. Clearly, there is a requirement for smaller allocations to meet the identified housing needs in the shorter term, in accordance with Paragraph 72 of the Framework.

I agree with the concept of providing new settlements which can be developed into a self-contained small town over time. However, in this draft plan, most of the suggested areas ar far too small to fit this model. This seems to be because the concept is, once again, driven by the land which has been offered up rather than srategic planning. Several of the areas are in the green belt, with no "exceptional circumstances" justifying their inclusion. This strategy needs to be far more refined to create a realistic long-term plan.
