Spring Lane:
The site is in a sustainable location, adjacent to the built up area of the village of Radford Semele. Future residents of the site would have the opportunity to access every day facilities and key destinations by a choice of transport modes. The site is available and achievable and offers a sustainable solution to assist in meeting the housing requirement for the District.

The Council is right to recognise that not all the housing needs arising from the District can be met by developing land, outside the Green Belt. Part g) of the policy therefore appropriately recognises the need to allocate some land for development which is currently within the Green Belt and sets out genuine 'exceptional circumstances' which warrant the alterations. Without this recognition the needs of the people living in some of the most sustainable villages across the District will not be met. This would be contrary to the thrust of the NPPF. Moreover it may well result in the development of land which would cause greater harm to the District (such as landscape impact, highway safety and infrastructure issues etc).

Policy DS10 sets out the amount of housing to be allocated to the main urban areas and the more sustainable villages. The Council is right to recognise that a proportion of the development should be directed to locations beyond the four major settlements of Kenilworth, Warwick, Leamington and Whitnash. Without this recognition some of the other settlements are likely to struggle to meet their own needs, and to retain the younger generations. The result of this would be a continuing spiral of decline to the detriment of the local economy and of local communities.

Policy DS11 proposes the allocation of Kingswood- Meadow House and Kingswood- Kingswood Farm for residential development. We find the proposed allocations, and the removal of the land from the Green Belt to facilitate that development to be sound and appropriate.

Kingswood is a sustainable settlement which provides a good range of local services and facilities to its residents.Moreover the village is served by
regular public transport, both bus and train, making access to higher tier settlements feasible without reliance on the private car.

We find the proposal to release land from the Green Belt at this point in time necessary to ensure the future success of the settlement. It is only by releasing land that the village will be able to meet its own housing needs, both affordable and market.

Land at Meadow House and Kingswood Farm is available and suitable to meet the development needs of the settlement.

We find that the proposed allocations, and the removal of the sites from the Green Belt, is appropriate, having been fully justified through the Local Plan preparation process. It is effective in that the development will meet housing needs in a sustainable settlement, and is consistent with national policy.

The Council has recognised the need to allocate existing Green Belt land for residential development. This has been fully justified. It is therefore essential that the Green Belt boundaries be amended to allow the development to proceed, as set out in DS19 and paragraph 2.80.

The Council has carefully considered the strategy for distributing housing across the District to ensure the needs of all can be met in the most sustainable manner. The designation of Growth Villages, irrespective of whether they lie in the Green Belt or not, is an appropriate way to ensure the needs of the more rural areas can be met, consistent with national policy. In particular the recognition that Kingswood should be designated as a Growth Village is appropriately justified by the Council's evidence base.

Policy DS11 proposes the allocation of land at Kingswood - Meadow House for 10 dwellings and Kingswood - Kingswood Farm for a further 10 dwellings (sites H29 and H30). Combined the sites have a developable area outside of flood zone 2 (1:1000) or 3 (1:100) of approximately 1.9 hectares (excluding The Meadow House), and are capable of accommodating more than the 20 dwellings proposed between them. Failure to propose the allocation of the land for a higher number of units is not justified and is not consistent with national policy.

Detailed hydrological flood modelling undertaken by Robert West Consultants confirmed the extent of the flood zone and bearing this in mind outlined the potential for the sites to cater for a total of 39 dwellings.

National planning guidance requires the best use to be made of land, to minimise the overall take up of green fields and thus to reduce the impact on the wider landscape. Failure to make best use of the land results in conflict with the NPPF.

During the detailed design development stage A C Lloyd will investigate options to
further reduce any flood risk issues. These may include:
1. The possibility of enlarging the culvert under the Warwick Road to improve flows under the main road and thereby remove the shallow surface flooding of the adjacent highway / pedestrian access route. This may mean the emergency access could be avoided and may also provide benefit to the wider area.
2. Re-grading and deepening the existing channel back from the canal / rail culvert to approximately 1 in 500 gradient, within the Meadow House site.
3. Utilising land to the west of the Meadow House site for compensatory flood storage,which may increase the number of units which could be accommodated on the Kingswood - Meadow House site.

The plan period should be extended to 2031 (as Stratford Upon Avon have done), because the plan will not be adopted before the end of 2015, which is less than 15 years from the anticipated year of adoption; it is likely therefore that the choice of an end date of 2029 will artificially restrian the levels of growth.

It is considered that the windfall allowance is excessive and unjustified, and in the absence of a clear and robust evidence base from the Council the proposed windfall allowance is rejected.

The principal concern is the lack of provision to meet future needs arising from the conurbation especially Birmingham. The fact that 10.9 % of Birmingham's migration was directed to Coventry and Warwickshire LIP area in the period 2000/1 - 2010/11 indicates that some of this may be directed towards Warwick District, especially given the excellent rail and road links with the conurbation.
