BDW broadly supports the proposals for the plan to allow for new homes to meet the diverse needs of all residents. However, some concerns are raised within the detailed policy directions relating to this chapter and recommendations provided. In particular, it is evident that further evidence base is required to adequately and effectively respond, including evidence relating to tenure and type of homes, Gypsy and Traveller locational strategy, viability testing relating to M4(2) and M4(3), NDSS needs across the districts and SBCB needs inclusive of a review of the councils’ SBCB registers and secondary data.

The Council must monitor and ensure that the appropriate evidence is updated throughout the period of the Plan once adopted, and that policies can rely on this future evidence to quantify the need for different tenures and types of residential accommodation. Explicitly quantifying a level of tenures, mixes and types at the Plan’s adoption risks the Plan becoming quickly outdated, which would result in the Plan not being positively prepared or effective, as is required by Paragraph 36 of the NPPF.

Deeley Homes is generally supportive of the objectives set out in Chapter 5 in order to deliver homes that meet the needs of all communities. It is important that the SWLP acknowledges the need to meet specialist and elderly housing and self and custom building houses, it is appreciated that further work is required in regards to the former.

Please see responses to Policy Direction 10 and Draft Policy B in relation to specialist and elderly housing and self and custom housing.

There are some good points. However, local needs in particular have been overlooked. This is in two parts.
1. The needs of those who have lived somewhere historically and wish to stay put (locals = new families with local connections, those who have grown old where they live and who do not want to move).
2. The emerging needs of a community as it evolves.
Both should be determined by local policy. Neither have anything to do with self-build.

if more effort was put into community support and homes for elderly and those in need of care there would be less large homes with old people living in alone, sometimes we need to look at the 'norms' of society and the issues it causes it self rather than just adding more homes

The area of Kenilworth is already over run with multiple new housing developments in recent years. The current schools, dentists, GP, nurseries, parks, car parks etc are over run as they are. Bringing more to the town will make this beyond breaking point. Flooding the area with more new build houses will flood Kenilworth with cheap housing and de value the area. Kenilworth is a well regarded town, and the current new developments need to settle before bringing any more at all.
More housing developments will be extremely negative to the town and MUST NOT happen.

I object to the Delivering Homes section due to overestimated housing targets, potential overdevelopment, and inadequate infrastructure planning. The proposed 54,500 new homes risk overwhelming local services and encroaching on greenbelt land, harming biodiversity. There is also a lack of clarity on how infrastructure will support this growth, potentially leading to overburdened healthcare, transport, and utilities. Additionally, community consultation appears insufficient, raising concerns about whether local interests are being considered. Without addressing these issues, the plan risks unsustainable and poorly coordinated development.

Paragraph 73 of the Revised NPPF emphasises the importance of small and medium-sized sites in addressing housing requirements and supporting local housebuilders. Land at the northern edge of Broom in Stratford-on-Avon District should be allocated for new housing in the SWLP Review, as it is a sustainable location. This development would enhance housing supply and support the village's vitality, aligning with paragraph 83 of the Revised NPPF. We object to proposals to delay allocation of small and medium sites until Stage 2 of the SWLP as such sites have a critical role in addressing South Warwickshire's chronic housing shortage.

The Councils are proposing an inflexible affordable housing policy and an excessively burdensome regime of CIL and planning obligations. These policies are based on outdated assumptions and economic data and contradict the Revised NPPF (2024). CIL is an unfair tax that adversely affects the private housing development sector. It makes many schemes financially unviable and hinders overall housing delivery in the UK. This is a particular issue in South Warwickshire. The SWLP also needs to resolve the onerous, unfair and unreasonable demands which are placed on applications under 50 dwellings by Development Management evidence requirements and planning conditions.

This heading is an important objective, but the content of the SWLP does not entirely live up to the objective. As the opening to section 5 suggests, the plan needs to allow for the diverse needs of all our residents – including families, students, the elderly and people wishing to self-build. But there is also a need to cater for people spatially where they wish or need to live – rather than in new settlements remote from their established communities. There is a definite emphasis within this plan of avoiding existing villages for fear perhaps of stimulating political pressure.

New homes cannot be provided without taking account of the local infrastructure. Additional schools, GP practices, sewerage and water. Homes cannot be provided in isolation.

There is no definition of affordable. Most new homes built in recent years are directed at middle to high range purchasers. They are not affordable to most young people.

There is also no point providing 'affordable housing' in areas where there is no local employment. The assumption seems to be buyers/renters will have their own transport. Public transport to rural areas is poor.
