Cobalt Estates has committed considerable resources to the redevelopment of Talisman Square Kenilworth. Much of the planning permission for retail development with flats above (W03/1260) has been implemented (but not all) and it is therefore still extant.
Due to a downturn in the economy and a lack of demand for flats part of the development has not been implemented and Cobalt Estates has secured a five year temporary planning permission for car parking as an interim measure. Cobalt Estates remains committed to redeveloping the site once market conditions improve and the demand for additional retail space within Kenilworth town centre increases.

It is noted that this car park area is currently identified in the plan on Policy Map 5A as primary retail frontage and subject to the requirements of Policy TCP6 (Primary retail frontages) that restricts the levels of non-A1 uses in this elevation.

Cobalt Estates is broadly supportive of this policy's intentions but considers it overly restrictive in this instance/ location as it could impede the future delivery of this town centre redevelopment site. Therefore this part of Talisman Square should not be designated as Primary Frontage.
