Do you agree with the approach laid out in Draft Policy Direction-48- Protecting and Enhancing Landscape Character?

Representation ID: 93564

Received: 02/03/2025

Respondent: Wellesbourne and Walton Parish Council

Representation Summary:

It is a great pity that this document does not follow the policy above. the potential developments of SG15, Sg16, X1 and SG09 would destroy the landscape and character of the Parish of Wellesbourne and Walton. They would create a vast urban sprawl at odds with the village nature we currently have, surrounded by open countryside. The proposed sites for development are all about the rapacious nature of developers and nothing about the character and landscape of our settlement.

Do you broadly support the proposals in the Meeting South Warwickshire's Sustainable Development Requirements chapter? If you have any additional points to raise with regards to this chapter please include them here.

Representation ID: 93570

Received: 02/03/2025

Respondent: Wellesbourne and Walton Parish Council

Representation Summary:

We do not support for the following reasons. Over development of the area surrounding the parish. A loss of the character and landscape. A lack of infrastructure to support the development we already have. Medical centre, dentists, school all oversubscribed or close to it. A lack of playing fields, lack of leisure facilities particularly a sports hall. A poor system of public transport, with no rail connectivity. Sustainable transport is unobtainable without the infrastructure of cycle lanes, safe footways and improved public transport. Water, sewage, broadband, provision all creaking.

Do you agree with the approach laid out in Draft Policy Direction-16-Airfields?

Representation ID: 100799

Received: 07/03/2025

Respondent: Wellesbourne and Walton Parish Council

Representation Summary:

Wellesbourne airfield: it is very important that the flying functions of the airfield are safeguarded. Whilst we recognise that the site will be used for other meters including industrial development it s vital that this is not done at the cost of the flying functions. The preference from development of the site should be for research and be allied to the University Campus close by. There is little need for further storage and distribution units when some of those already in the village are empty. The additional development should not occur before the runway is in situ.
