Losing any precious green belt is 100 percent NOT acceptable, there would be irreversible loss of openness, introducing urban sprawl into an areas which provide at least some sanctuary for the few species/ limited wildlife we haven't killed off already. . The physical and visual intrusion of masssive acres of new development will damage our area FOR EVER. Once land is built on you will never restore it back to forest,woodland or open green space.
As I've quoted elsewhere green spaces hence green belt is vital to the mental health of the population.
Encroaching on any green belt is unaaceptable.

Green belt is important for identifying hamlets and villages. People need to have the opportunity to walk within the green belt area.

This policy is lacking clarity and is vague on new grey belt definition. It only presents the first stage of the review for green belt. The policy opposes green belt development unless exceptional circumstances are proven. Emphasising the green belt's importance in limiting sprawl especially between Coventry and Kenilworth, and Kenilworth and Leek Wootton.
Weakening green belt protections is a short sighted solution to the housing crisis and leads to high value homes instead of affordable housing. The focus should shift to sustainable urban planning like regenerating brownfield sites and building higher density housing near existing infrastructure

No - green belt should not be considered when there is brownfield land available which there is in stratford. GReenbelt should be look after to prevent urban sprawl. New settlments are better to meet large targets and quotas to minimise traffic ongestion .

I do not agree with the proposal to build on green belt land.
Green belt land was designated as such to protect the urban sprawl taking up valued areas of country side, which help generate natural events like pollination, which unfortunately is in a steady decline due to similar negative planning decisions.

I believe the focus on sustainability loses sight of the issue of exceptionality when considering green field sites. I also believe your sustainability appraisal is techinically floored. By ranking sites, you only establish relative sustainability, not an absolute measure of whether a site is sustainable. Just because a site is more sustainable than another does not make that site a sustainable option itself. The latter requires that an absolute threshold of sustainability is demonstrated. Your plan does not do this.

Green belt land was originally designated for the reasons the policy outlines but every time a new local plan is produced vast swathes of green belt land are simply removed to enable development. This is clearly not sustainable. The green belt policy should be to protect it unless there really are exceptional circumstances.

The whole purpose of the green belt is to prevent urban sprawl from our towns, preserve our countryside and the character of historic towns such as Stratford-upon-Avon that is so dependant on tourism due to its charm. Therefore, we should not be considering building whole new towns within the current green belt locations so close to Stratford, it will both harm our districts countryside appeal as well as detract from Stratfords tourist attraction.

Releasing green belt land should only be considered once there are no suitable sites located outside of the green belt available for development. Even then sites that are clearly and robustly demonstrated as being 'grey belt' should come forward first and then finally the Council should consider limited release of green belt land where it has the least impact on the fundamental objectives of green belt policy as set out in the NPPF.

The green belt is an important tool in minimising the increasing urbanisation of the regions, and maintaining rural land masses.
Any relaxation in the application of green belt planning policies is very concerning, as once a precedent has been set it will enable large scale property development on previously rural sites to occur. It is vital to ensure that rural separation between large residential areas is maintained, and that the separation is of a meaningful and effective distance.

Despite the rhetoric in the draft policy, the importance of the green belt appears to have been disregarded. Two major tenets that the proposals ignore. 1) Greenbelt should be used to check the unrestricted sprawl of large build up areas. The draft proposals are instead looking to encourage urban sprawl. 2) Green belt should be used to preserve the setting and special character of historic towns. Again, concrete-ing over clopton quarter goes totally against this. Based on just these two issues it is confusing why green belt is considered as 'preferred' when there appears to be so much brownfield availability.

As a result of green belt protection over the years, development has concentrated in the area south of Warwick and Leamington. The opportunity to redress this imbalance by prioritising development in the north appears to have been missed in the SWLP policy and is not reflected in the preferred site selection.

I find it difficult to accept that building on designated green belt land in agricultural use is being considered, when there are other brown field sites and infill sites to develop.
Kenilworth is a town in a rural setting, and will not benefit from being merged with Coventry, Leek Wootton or any other centre of population.
Schools, car parks and GP surgeries are full or overwhelmed at current population levels without adding to this.

We agree with the approach that further work is required to explore Green Belt release. however the policy refers to releasing land from the Green Belt only in the case of meeting South Warks needs - and not meeting the needs of adjacent LPAs such as Redditch/Bromsgrove. This should be clarified. In addition, given the longer timeframe of this Plan, which we support), the opportunity to identify Safeguarded Land for the future is welcomed and should be a part of a later iteration.

Green belt land should not be built on when brownfield land is available. New settlements are preferable as they will meet the quota of houses and prevent a strain on existing infrastructure. The Clopton Quarter should not be used for development. It is next to the Welcome Hills and development would have a detrimental impact on wildlife and spoil the enjoyment for people as it would no longer be rural.

If Green Belt is used for development is it possible to have a policy that seeks to replace the area used elsewhere in South Warwickshire, for example extending the existing non affected Green Belt, creating a new Green Belt or extending the Cotswold National Landscape?
