The preparation of an Area Action Plan for Royal Leamington Spa is strongly supported. The Town Council has endorsed the Area Action Plan approach in preference to a Neighbourhood Plan under the Localism Act 2012 and welcomes the opportunity to be directly involved in the preparation of such. It is hoped that the process of developing a Town Centre Action Plan can be commenced in the near future and will not be delayed to await the formal adoption of the District Local Plan.

The Council is very supportive of the policy that places the provision of improvements to the highway infrastructure and public transport at the forefront of future development in the District.
The Council strongly urges that this is provided for within future large scale developments and is also implemented before completion and occupancy where this will lead to an increase in the volume of vehicular and pedestrian movement.

The Council recognises the unique position of Lillington and parts of the Crown Ward and welcomes the objective of encouraging regeneration of this area through the allocation of land currently within the Green Belt for housing and enhancing employment opportunities. It is important that the social characteristics of the area are recognised within any future housing provision by ensuring sufficient numbers of affordable homes and a mix of housing types.

The Council recognises the importance of incorporating the impact of climate change and sustainable energy use within all new development in the District. Of equal importance however is the co-existence of new energy conservation and efficiency technologies with the requirements relating to Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas. It is hoped that these sometimes conflicting objectives can be harmonised within a policy which encourages use of energy conservation measures by those living within houses of architectural significance.

The establishment of a Restaurant and Café quarter at Livery Street has taken place
without any prior consultation with the Town Council on the principle of change of
use of this area. The Council would wish to be consulted on the formation of such
policies at an earlier stage in future.

General - The proposed Policy is endorsed as a means of exercising greater planning control on the numbers and location of Houses in Multiple Occupation. (HIMO)
The Council is concerned that the quality of design and standard of amenity afforded to the occupants of HIMO's is not comparable with that expected of modern accommodation. It is therefore requested that consideration is given to a review of the current National Building Regulations to ensure that the size and design of accommodation within HIMO's is improved to a standard comparable with other units
of accommodation, particularly modern dwellings.
The increasing number of HIMO's also results in a concentration of letting signage which has an adverse and unwelcome impact on the street scene of Leamington
Spa. It is suggested that a policy statement is considered with the objective of exercising control on the proliferation and location of such signage.
