The potential for smaller scale developments to fulfil a significant role in meeting future growth needs should be recognised and given as much importance as strategic allocations. Existing settlement boundaries should be reviewed and new boundaries created. Tanworth-in-Arden contains 2 HELAA B sites (515 and 758) to allow smaller scale development supporting its services and facilities and in villages nearby.
Green Belt policy changes need to be fully taken on-board, e.g. Site 758 is Grey Belt. This is likely to increase the number of small-scale developments.
In a predominantly rural area, small sites should contribute significantly > 10% of supply.

Greenbelts should be left as exactly that; pieces of land untouched by development. There needs to remain an obvious divide between villages and towns, not be merged into one giant town. Certain villages, notably Newbold Pacey, are known for their peaceful walking routes and untouched stretches of countryside, these should not be considered for development. You will be damaging the environment for future generations, not enhancing it.

I strongly think that there should be no building on the green belt between Kenilworth and Coventry or Kenilworth and Warwick/Leamington area. Otherwise I think Kenilworth could lose its identity by merging with these other towns.

many areas in south Warwickshire have road connections that are already struggling with traffic, but infilling small areas around villages, it should spread the congestion more evenly! A priority must be given for affordable housing, ie 2-3 bedrooms are required by many young couples, who wish to live in their home villages or near their place of work.

Small scale developments may appear to be fairly simple but often have much bigger implications for small communities, i.e. loss of local amenity, increased traffic, drain on local infrastructure and services. Depending on size of community the impact of a development of say 4 houses in a small village could be equivalent to 100 plus in a large village.

We need low cost housing that provides easy access to transport, social, commercial, education, employment opportunities. Brown Field, In-Fill and land adjacent to existing infrastructure provides this. It is essential that homes are constructed for the benefit of those with below average income and not for the benefit of developers and large home building companies.

Gladman are supportive of the SWLP reviewing and updating settlement boundaries where appropriate across South Warwickshire.
Irrespective of when the settlement boundaries are considered, be it in Part 1 or Part 2 of the SWLP, the policy should contain a mechanism to ensure that development beyond settlement boundaries can come forward should other allocations not deliver as expected and the supply drop. This will allow the Plan to respond effectively to changes in circumstance throughout the plan period and ensure that much needed market and affordable housing can be provided.
It must be recognised that small and medium-sized housebuilders are not limited to small sites of less than ten but can also develop sites of up to 100 units on the edge
of sustainable settlements. It is therefore important that the SWLP provides for a range of sites in terms of size, type and location if the Plan is to support wider Government ambitions to support diversification within the sector.
Growth of existing settlements should be part of the overall strategy. This will allow development to occur in sustainable locations and facilitate the continued viability
and vitality of settlements. Growth at existing settlements typically results in a dispersed spatial strategy which allocates sites in a range of locations and sizes,
increasing competition and delivery. Whilst not opposed to new settlements and large strategic allocations, these typically take longer to deliver owing to their complexity and therefore should not be considered in isolation.

Yes to support local builders, but limit sites to 10 dwellings or less and don’t remove farmland to enable this. Reuse unused areas, for example the buildings in disrepair around Timothy Bridge Road. Ryan Hill Park could be made into a leisure and wellbeing centre, or a gated community- Only if public transport is increased to minimise additional traffic. Could include a river taxi.

I only broadly agree. There is still the risk of simply adding to existing towns, such as Stratford, and creating urban sprawl. Again, transport and community infrastructures have to be a priority along with preserving green spaces. Consideration should be given to developing existing brownfield sites within existing towns - Stratford is a prime example of a town with lots of empty spaces within the town which should be considered first before putting new housing on the fringes of towns.

The green belt has had a devastating effect on villages and towns within it stifling growth and stopping natural growth of villages and towns within it.
Villages and towns that are highly sustainable and have the infrastructure in place to cope with growth The settlement boundary should be Reviewed and allow Allow housing that will boost the local economy.

Strategic Growth proposals will not maintain the housing development required over the plan period and, in particular in the short-term, housing requirements will need to be met by development in and around existing settlements. Agree with the broad approach, but the draft policy direction still emphasises small-scale development and would limit growth of some of the larger settlements. The Plan should reinforce NPPF Paragraph 83 by allowing new housing opportunities for existing settlements, to assist their growth and allow them to thrive and support existing local services, either within that settlement or services within a neighbouring settlement.

Land East of Station Lane, Kingswood (Site 169) should be included in the SWLP as a small allocation to bolster the 5-year Housing Land Supply. The Site is the most accessible side of the village to the rail station (unlike 53 and 761), is well contained without long distances views (unlike 514 & 649) and does not make a contribution to Green Belt purposes (unlike 88 & 205), does extend the village envelope north beyond Rising Lane (unlike 235).

Small scale development sounds like a semantic side step to avoid the real issue of providing the necessary growth in infrastructure to meet the needs of a growing population in a location i.e. if there is no legal obligation, just set aside infrastructure concerns and build in the hope that our creaking infrastructure, already failing will cope - it won't! there should be monitoring of this concern to extent that when new homes are approved their should be independent validation of the ability for the infrastructure to still be able to deliver required service safely.
