No indication to date that the right type of homes are being built. No provision in Kenilworth for older citizens to downsize to high-spec single floor accommodation in easy reach of a bus service. Too many large homes being built.

The policy is incorrect and structurally flawed in its view. For the housing market to provide economical growth properties need to bought and sold against the back drop of financial lending. This approach will bring into line any affordable housing to the market rate for the area. There is no industrial or economic activity within the local area to support the house prices charged at Bearley/Wilmcote site. The wealth to buy such properties will be from commuters to Birmingham or London. Consideration for the Gypsy, Traveller, Showperson community should not be considered as they self sufficient without any local contribution.

More housing of any type on this overwhelming scale will not bring any benefits to the area - the roads through Wilmcote are already a rat-run at peak times with cars accessing the A3400, Stratford town and Henley in Arden. There will be no increased benefit to the community from the new town as the addition of a ribbon development will deter tourists from visiting this special village of historical significance.

I think the localised approach is best as the requirements are different in the various areas of south Warwickshire. There must be adequate affordable houses for single and couples setting up home for the first time. Less four bedroomed houses, more with one or two bedrooms.

Road infrastructure will not cope; sewage plants will not cope; insufficient jobs - workers will travel out of the area; insufficient schools; insufficient doctors/dentist surgeries - can't get sufficient general practitioners and dentists to cope with existing. Read all about 'infrastructure' plans - will not happen, Long Marston good example.

This is not really a policy. Marks out of 10 - one and could do better!! Judging by the types of housing, size of housing and more importantly the character and poor use of land, i.e. developers wanting to cram in as many housing and smaller housing as they can then this policy should be drafted far better than it is as the current policy that is being utilised is somewhat wanting given the developments of current sites.
I agree that the councils should have authority in drafting policies but not sure they have the capability.

We have a general shortage of low cost smaller houses and there is a need for this to be rectified in the plan. Preference should be given to schemes that provided housing at below market value and addrees the needs identified in local surveys.
There should be a general presumption against substantially extending smaller houses in rural areas. Many small houses and cottages suitable for local people have been bought up by people from outside the area and extended into very large dwellings often in unsustainable locations generating unacceptable levels of additional traffic,

The way housing is delivered at the moment is an arrant example of market failure. Developers build what they want where they want to, on the basis of what makes the most profit. Good housing is a social good therefore incentives need to be redesigned as a hybrid of market and non-market. Until that becomes possible we must set the rules. Financial penalties for non delivery of the right tenure and type sufficient to be dissuasive. I note that legal regs can be circumvented by passing on costs to customers - care not to leave loopholes.

Mixed development of rented and privately owned homes and integration of housing designed for older people is far preferable from a societal viewpoint. It is essential that the right balance of housing stock is planned and that sufficient provision is made for smaller starter homes for couples, with larger for young and growing families. Apartments and single person accommodation: "affordable" homes for purchase and at reasonable rents are needed in addition to larger expensive private houses.

The size of proposed devlopements doesn't reflect local need.
I belive there isn't that much reliable evidence of housing price reduction. But even if true house prices are so high that even a 10% reduction, which is very unikley, will have little impact on most young people's ability to afford a house.

Planning for new communities should include provision/capacity for care homes and other types of supported housing, to allow for people who grow to be part of their community to not have to face relocating elsewhere when the time comes that they need care.
Why are only one and 2 bed affordable homes required to meet minimum space standards (NDSS) and not all of them? Under 16s are still expected to share in 3 and 4 bed properties.

We should not be building large volumes of estates, we should be building up with apartments to save using precious fields.
We need low cost council houses or apartments for young people to buy a home.
Affordable housing in this area is a joke, the ratio of income to house prices is unaffordable & needs addressing.
We are condemning a generation to living in poverty & spending there low income, on mortgages & bank interest.

What is needed here in SOA (and the country at large) are many more good, well designed and appealing smaller properties of high quality and with a small amount of outside/balcony space. These might even be low level flats, but more likely similar to the developments on the banks of the Avon by Lucy's Mill. Also the interesting building next to the Butterfly Farm. These would allow older people/empty nesters to sell their larger than necessary houses to people who need them and move to somewhere which is relevant to their needs. All there are now are unappealing bungalows.

North Leamington’s greenbelt land is under attack from both HS2 and the WDC local plan. Cubbington in particular seems targeted, with the outline plans suggesting it could completely lose its identity as it merges with Lillington to the rear of Rugby Road. This cannot happen. The current road, school, and general services infrastructure cannot support excessive urban sprawl in this area and our countryside must be protected at all costs. The network of public footpaths in these fields offers local residents recreational opportunity that boosts mental health and fitness. WDC is not planning on improving our town…it’s decimating our countryside.

More quantity and availability of affordable housing at a reasonable price is required. Too often housing schemes include more affordable housing than they actually deliver as developers come back and appeal on cost grounds etc.
