Concerns about the Two-Part Plan approach. The Plan must identify deliverable sites for the first five years post-adoption (2028-2033). While existing commitments help, new allocations are needed. For strategic allocations in Part-1 to contribute to 5YHLS, clear evidence of housing completions within five years is required. Delivery may be delayed if detailed policies, masterplans, and design codes follow in the Part-2. To speed up housing delivery, the Councils should abandon the two-part Plan approach and move to a single Local Plan which identifies its full requirement and allocate sites, one being Land at Field Farm, Pennyford Lane, Wootton Wawen.

The Vision should recognise that there are unmet development needs outside of South Warwickshire that may need to be met within South Warwickshire. A Strategic Objective should also be to meet any unmet housing needs from communities elsewhere that cannot meet their needs, where it is practical and consistent with achieving sustainable development. This would align the strategic objective with the ‘positively prepared’ test of soundness.

The South Warwickshire Councils must continually review the Local Housing Need up to adoption, they must consider an increased higher housing need, implement a 5% lapse rate to account for unimplemented commitments, and reassess the existing commitments and windfall allowance as outlined.

J & E Evans Properties has promoted land at Wootton Wawen across four land parcels, and request that Land at Field Farm (Sites 583, 584, 587 and 733) be included in the SWLP as 'small allocations' to bolster the 5YHLS for the following reasons:
- Alignment with Priority Areas
- Alignment with Spatial Strategy
- Alignment with the Overarching Principles and Commentary on the HELAA
- Right Choice for Development at Wootton Wawen
- Site should be considered Grey-Belt and released from Green-Belt as there are no areas or assets in footnote 7 of the NPPF relevant to the land

The identification of small sites outside of the strategic growth allocations can address local housing needs and deliver other benefits, particularly where no provision has been made to designated neighbourhood areas. The selection of such sites should be guided by the Priority Areas, Spatial Growth Strategy, and the Overarching Principles. This should include land within Priority Area 3 and at Wootton Wawen. J & E Evans Properties respectfully requests that Land at Field Farm, Wootton Wawen (including sites 583, 584, 587 and 733, be included in the SWLP as a ‘small allocation’ in that context to bolster the 5YHLS.

It is imperative that the SWLP adequately considers accommodating unmet housing needs arising from outside of South Warwickshire. There are significant unmet needs arising from the GBBCHMA which require attention, and potential unmet needs arising from Coventry which should be taken account of accordingly. There is also potential for unmet needs arising from Cotswold District, Redditch Borough and Solihull Metropolitan Borough which should be considered. Failure to do so would render the SWLP not positively prepared nor effective and thus unsound in line with Paragraph 36 a) and c) of the NPPF.

J & E Evans Properties consider there would be negative consequences for sustainable development if all development was channelled to locations outside the Green Belt, and in accordance with paragraph 148 of the NPPF, the need to promote sustainable patterns of development is paramount.

Draft-Policy-Direction-7 states “…if there are clear sustainability benefits to utilising one or more Green Belt locations, then this will form the basis of an argument that "exceptional circumstances" exist to justify releasing that land from the Green Belt”

J & E Evans Properties agree there are exceptional circumstances to warrant the release of Green Belt land.
