There is a complete lack of consideration with proposed SG areas for consdieration to be given to population density/existing infrastructure options. No evidence that consideration given to areas where expansion is viable as infrastructure already in place.

This is a meaningless policy If you aren't going to be more specific because appropriate density varies according to circumstances.
My experience is that you take no notice of density in neighbouring areas and try to enforce the 30dph which leads to ugly over developed sites with insufficient parking.

If the SWLP doesn't stipulate density requirements the developers will do what they are already doing and apply absolute minimum standards. THE SWLP should be very restrictive to development in the villages and green built so the character of these places is protected from harm.

Partial agreement. A site densification should only be determined by a fundamental criteria / checklist justifying the business case for said proposed development site. I would like that criteria spelt out in the plan to a broad but not exhaustive level. An example would be most beneficial. I understand the SWLP document complexity but it would help tremendously if you improve the communication and how it is communicated so that the audience understands in laymen terms. Numerous times in this document you forget who your audience is.

This is important. There has been a move to increasing the density of housing with smaller gardens and narrow roads. This needs to be resisted and appropriate densities determined and adhered to in planning.

Though I understand the pressure on building, increasing density is not a good social move, as was proved by the 1960-70's high density developments, and it reduces the appeal of the area.

This is the countryside; it is not an inner-city area where dense housing is either wanted or appropriate. Furthermore, people DO NOT want 20-minute neighbourhoods. We don't choose to live in the country so that we can be corralled into dense concrete jungles. If we wanted to live in a 20-minute neighbourhood we'd live in a large town or even a city; South Warwickshire is predominantly countryside, and should not be conflated with an urban desert.

We need homes for single people and young couples and the best way to build these is to allow multiple occupancy homes to be built within developments of single family homes (to avoid social housing ghettoes). If Paris can look beautiful with 5 and 6 storey homes, we ought to be able to have 3 or 4 storey buildings for such need.

The housing density assumptions are too great. Where development takes place on Green Belt land, the Council must ensure that at least 50% of new houses are affordable. The Council must reject developers protestations that this is too high a figure. The Council has previously yielded to developers on Affordable Homes issues.

I support and would encourage as much densification as possible. Dense housing requires less land, encourages nearby infrastructure, and is more suitable for 20-minute neighbourhood principles.
Car parking requirements should be reduced if nearby infrastructure is accessible.

-It is not surprising that developers don’t want optimal densities as they have a fiduciary duty to maximise profit, rather than what is good for residents overall.
-Specifying suitably high densities in urban areas and the centre of new settlements is crucial for effective 20 minute neighbourhoods.
-The Local Plan provides an opportunity to radically re-design and re-provide housing in our towns, through much higher densities and the provision of multi-level living i.e. apartment provision. This is the only practical way to meet housing need where the demand is, making use of existing infrastructure.

By implication therefore the design code would mean that in previously sparsely populated areas the development will also be of very low density.

Intensification should be given a higher priority within this plan. The benefits are laid out in the draft policy, but I think it can go further. In Warwick, Leamington and Kenilworth for example there are several surface car parks that have no business taking up so much space in our town centres. Replacing these with multi-storeys and high-density housing will unlock thousands of homes in locations that are attractive, well connected and low-carbon. E.g. Chandos Street, Leamington Station, Abbey End and the huge car park at Leamington Shopping Park (Shires) etc. No-brainer!

The huge housing proposal of 8,500 houses for B1 will overwhelm the surrounding area - traffic volume is already hugely increased because there have been 3 large developments (Union View, Hatton Park and Hampton Trove) very recently. We have suffered delays with roadworks for the whole of 2025. If there is an accident or other hold-up on the A46 or the M40, Warwick becomes blocked with traffic and the B4117 is overwhelmed with traffic. B1 appears to have little infrastructure so inhabitants would have to go to Warwick to shop, etc. Warwick Hospital is similarly at breaking point.
