The tranquil qualities are now threatened by a proposed development of 8,000 homes. This figure is excessive compared to the previously suggested 4,500 and would destroy open spaces, disrupt local character, and harm fragile ecology. Current infrastructure is inadequate, with roads already strained from nearby developments. The local train station cannot support such a population increase. I urge the council to reject this proposal and consider smaller-scale housing that preserves our community's unique identity and environment.

Hospital and GP services in my area are already overwhelmed, with Warwick hospital recently declaring a Critical Incident. The local infrastructure is inadequate, with frequently blocked drains and sewers, no pavements or lighting, and dangerous roads making walking stressful, especially with children. Public transport is limited, and there are no local amenities within walking distance. The village faces flash flooding, and further development would destroy our rural community and prime Green Belt land essential for food production and biodiversity. I believe Site E1 Long Marston offers a more sensible option for development.

I formally object to the proposal for over 8,000 new homes in the Hatton (B1) area due to significant concerns. The development threatens local wildlife and biodiversity, potentially displacing species and harming habitats. It will also strain the already limited road network, increasing traffic congestion without the necessary infrastructure to support new residents. Furthermore, the increased population could negatively impact Warwick Hospital, leading to longer wait times and reduced care quality. I urge decision-makers to reconsider this proposal and suggest Leamington Spa as a more suitable location for such a project.

I object to the proposals for approximately 8000 houses in the Hatton and Hatton Green areas, particularly concerning sites near my property at [redacted]. I believe this development is inappropriate for several reasons: it encroaches on Green Belt land without justification, exacerbates existing traffic issues, and the local infrastructure cannot support the influx of new residents. Additionally, it will negatively impact the area's character, cause prolonged disturbances during construction, and strain public services. I advocate for development in built-up or brownfield areas instead.

I am objecting to the proposed development of over 8,000 homes on site B1 in the South Warwickshire Local Plan. Growing up in Little Shrewley, I value the countryside around Hatton for my health and wellbeing. The development would harm the Green Belt, merging Hatton villages into Warwick. The area already suffers from road congestion, and the current infrastructure cannot support the additional traffic. Furthermore, this project would destroy natural habitats and wildlife, including deer and birds of prey. I urge the planning committee to reconsider site B1 and explore alternatives with better infrastructure and environmental considerations.

I object to the plan to build 8000 houses in Hatton, which I believe will devastate our village. During the public meeting, crucial questions about police, NHS, infrastructure, utilities, and local services went unanswered, leading me to doubt the plan's feasibility. The current road system cannot handle the additional traffic, and there are concerns about water supply and sewage treatment capacity. Local residents' voices have not been heard, and environmental concerns are overlooked. I urge that the plan be rejected and a smaller development considered instead, allowing time for necessary planning and investment.

I formally object to the inclusion of Land at Hatton (B1) in the South Warwickshire Local Plan. As a resident of Hatton, I have concerns regarding the impact on Green Belt land, insufficient environmental assessments regarding local biodiversity, and the strain on existing infrastructure with 6,000 new homes. Additionally, the site is prone to flooding, and the proposed development could worsen this risk without adequate mitigation. The scale of development would also disrupt the community's character, leading to significant social cohesion issues. I urge the planning committee to reconsider this site.

I object to the plans for areas B1 and SG07 due to their impact on Hampton Magna and Hatton Park, as well as on Warwick. The focus on housing and industrial development overlooks the need for adequate infrastructure to manage increased traffic. Birmingham Road is already congested, and the small lanes cannot handle any more vehicles. Additionally, local facilities, including doctors and Warwick Hospital, will be overwhelmed, with the hospital lacking sufficient parking. The local plan should prioritise addressing these infrastructure and facility issues before proceeding with development.

Sirs,
I wish to strongly object to the proposed building of 8000(!) houses around Hatton.
The local roads cannot possibly cope with such a vast increase in the numbers of vehicles heading into Warwick or Solihull, as well as the water and sewage requirements, and everything else that goes alongside such a vast expansion. Our roads are already a disgrace, and the turmoil caused for over 12 months just altering a short stretch of road by Hatton Park bodes very ill if your plans go ahead.
This is in addition to the terrible loss of green belt and farmland, necessary for current locals' mental health as well as the wildlife living on and around these beautiful fields.
You are [redacted] our countryside - again!

I find the proposal to build over 8,000 new homes on green belt land deeply concerning due to its potential strain on local infrastructure. The existing road network is inadequate for the expected traffic increase, leading to gridlock and longer commute times. Additionally, essential services like schools and healthcare facilities are already at capacity, with no plans for expansion. Environmentally, this development threatens vital green spaces and productive farmland, reducing local food security and biodiversity. Previous housing projects have caused significant disruption, which raises doubts about the feasibility of this proposal. A more sustainable approach is necessary.

I formally object to the proposed Hatton New Community (B1) development in the South Warwickshire Local Plan. This plan for 8,000 new homes is inappropriate for Hatton, threatening the environment, local infrastructure, and community character. It would destroy green belt land, increase traffic congestion, and strain local services, including schools and healthcare. Additionally, it would alter the rural identity of Hatton, impacting tourism and quality of life. I urge the planning authorities to reconsider this proposal and focus on sustainable growth in areas capable of supporting such development without harming rural communities.

I object to the proposal for over 8,000 new homes on green belt land, as it will worsen traffic congestion, particularly on the A46 and M40 Junction 15. The local train service from Hatton Station is already inadequate, lacking parking and frequent trains. I believe a more sustainable option would be to develop brownfield sites in Warwickshire's town centres, converting underused spaces to reduce car reliance and support local businesses. I urge reconsideration of this proposal and suggest focusing on revitalising derelict urban areas instead.

As a resident of Shrewley, I am concerned about the lack of amenities and public transport in this rural area, which relies heavily on cars. Local schools are under pressure, and current roads are already congested and dangerous. The proposed development would harm the Green Belt and destroy valuable countryside.

I wish to object to the proposed settlement location B1 at Hatton due to significant concerns. This site would lead to permanent loss of green belt land and wildlife, increased risks to public safety from more vehicles, and inadequate road infrastructure. The narrow roads cannot support additional traffic, resulting in potential accidents. Public transport is insufficient, with infrequent train services and no bus routes. The local area lacks the necessary facilities and amenities for such a large development, which would strain resources. I urge refusal of site B1 based on these reasons.

I object to the proposed Hatton New Settlement development of approximately 8,500 homes on Green Belt land. This development threatens wildlife, increases emissions, and contradicts national planning policies designed to protect open spaces. It would exacerbate food security issues by reducing farmland and create significant infrastructure challenges, straining local healthcare and education services. The existing roads cannot accommodate the additional traffic, leading to increased pollution and safety concerns. Approving this development would set a dangerous precedent for further loss of Green Belt land. I urge you to consider my objection seriously.

As a resident of Hampton-on-the-Hill, I am concerned about the proposed B2 site at Hatton. Our village is already suffering from heavy traffic as it is used as a shortcut when the A46 is congested. Past planning applications for new developments promised a Haul Route to alleviate this but it was never implemented. The influx of new homes has only worsened the situation, damaging our historic buildings. I urge that any development at Hatton includes a by-pass, funded by the developers, to protect our village's quality of life from increased traffic.

Dear Sir or Madam
I am writing to point out my objection to the proposed building of houses at Hatton.
I have lived in the area all of my life and have enjoyed the beauty and significance of the area and the agriculture and wildlife it supports.
I realise that there seems to be an urgent need for house building, and I don't want to sound like a NIMBY, but 8000 homes feels extremely excessive and will make a lovely village setting, with green fields turn into a town.
I could go on about the lack of infrastructure, disruption, etc, but you will already be aware of this.
Thanks for listening

I have tried to register a complaint on your portal - its incredibly complicated and in my opinion has been designed to prevent people from registering a complaint.
Having lived in Hampton on the Hill for many years now and its already obvious that the water system is overloaded and the traffic is gridlocked at the slightest delay or roadworks.
The A46 is a joke in rain and floods now by Warwick which causes terrible delays in our village when the traffic uses it as a rat run.
Its obvious to all except the council and the greedy developers that this area cannot use any more developments - there is no infastructure in place to cope.
We will object to any future housing plans based on the lack of infrastructure to cope in our village.

I believe the proposed development at Site B1 constitutes environmental vandalism, threatening a vital natural habitat for legally protected species. Barn and tawny owls, along with native bat populations, depend on this land, which is crucial for their survival. Additionally, this area is part of the Green Belt, intended to prevent urban sprawl and protect agricultural land essential for food security. The development lacks necessary infrastructure and is driven by profit rather than responsible planning. This proposal should be halted as it undermines conservation efforts and sustainable development principles.

I strongly oppose the proposal due to several concerns. Firstly, it threatens agricultural land and farmers' livelihoods, as well as the beautiful countryside. Additionally, the loss of wildlife would constitute severe environmental damage. Local infrastructure, including water and drainage systems, would be compromised, increasing flooding risks. Hatton Station requires significant expansion to accommodate additional travellers, which would exacerbate traffic congestion on the A4177. There are already staffing issues at Priory Medical Centre, raising doubts about accommodating new medical staff. Lastly, new schools would lead to increased noise and traffic.

I strongly object to the inclusion of the C1 and B1 sites in the South Warwickshire Local Plan. The C1 site is unsuitable due to inadequate infrastructure, particularly the narrow B4439, which cannot accommodate the additional traffic from nearly 5,000 homes. This road already faces congestion and would need extensive upgrades. Moreover, the development would harm the environment, affecting protected trees, wildlife, and local communities. Existing local services, including schools and transport, cannot support such large developments, making the C1 and B1 sites inappropriate for inclusion in the plan.

I formally object to the proposal for 8,000 new houses in the Hatton B1 area due to major concerns about traffic infrastructure, wildlife preservation, and local healthcare capacity. The existing roads cannot handle the increased traffic, leading to congestion and safety issues. The development would also destroy critical habitats, threatening local biodiversity. Additionally, local hospitals are already at full capacity, and adding a large population would overwhelm healthcare services.

I believe B1 and C1 should be preserved as valuable green belt countryside, not developed for housing. Key concerns include the unsuitability of the B4439 as an access road due to its narrowness and dangerous bends, the lack of existing infrastructure to support increased traffic, and the capacity limits at Hatton station. Development would harm local wildlife habitats and lead to significant loss of agricultural land, including a vital dairy farm. Additionally, local healthcare, education, and community facilities are inadequate for any population growth, making these sites unsuitable for a new town.
The agricultural field in B!1 in Hatton accessed by The Green and The Hockley Road (B4439) already has severe traffic problems and is dangerous and unsuitable for new development. It is important arable farm land. There would be significant degradation to Hatton Wood which is a beautiful wildlife habitat. There is no capacity at Ferncumbe school.

I object to including the C1 and B1 sites in the South Warwickshire Local Plan, particularly the C1 site, which I find deeply flawed. The proposal to develop Green Belt land for residential purposes is impractical and lacks rational consideration. The C1 site could add significant traffic to already congested roads, with inadequate infrastructure and dangerous access routes. Environmental impacts on local wildlife and the necessity for public services further complicate this development. I urge the council to remove both sites from the plan to avoid disastrous consequences.

As a resident of Warwick, I formally object to the proposed development at Land at Hatton, site B1 in the South Warwickshire Local Plan. The development would occupy 68% of the remaining land in Hatton Parish, which has no current development needs due to a stable population and low unemployment. I am concerned about urban sprawl, loss of identity, increased pollution, traffic congestion, and the impact on biodiversity and health. I urge planners and councillors to reject this proposal, as it threatens our open spaces and the identities of our community.
