Q-S10: Please add any comments you wish to make about the development distribution strategy for South Warwickshire

Our concern as a Parish Council is that you adopt a brownfield first approach to all development in order to protect our green spaces. We would also like the greenbelt to be maintained and only considered for development as a last resort

Q-B8.1: Do you agree that the plan should include a policy avoiding development on the best and most versatile agricultural land, unless it can be demonstrated that the harm to agricultural land is clearly outweighed by the benefit of development?

Yes

Q-B8.2: When considering climate change, biodiversity and economic wellbeing, are there any rural land uses or locations that should be prioritised over others?

Yes, prioritise BMV land for agriculture, but do not ignore the history of production from agricultural land not recorded as BMV. Take its history of provision into account, as well managed land can still be productive.

Q-C1.2: Are there any other criteria which should be considered when assessing proposals for large scale renewable energy developments?

We should look to a roof-tops first policy rather than land, as this minimises the land take and leaves more free for agricultural food production. We are definitely against a policy that allows speculative applications to build solar farms on greenfield land. This should be avoided in the Plan.
