We support Draft Policy I, which requires development proposals to ensure that there is adequate water supply to serve new development and also requires the use of suitably designed SuDS schemes to manage surface water runoff.
With regards to wastewater infrastructure, SLR have produced a Preliminary Flood Risk Assessment and Surface Water Drainage Strategy (Appendix 3) which states at Section 7 that there is a Severn Trent Water public foul sewer which crosses the site north-south. It is therefore proposed that any development at Budbrooke Lodge Farm, Warwick (part of the SG08 Strategic Growth Option) would connect to this public sewer and there is unlikely to be a requirement for a pumped drainage solution.
Appendix E of SLR’s report provides a combined flood risk constraints plan. This has been used to inform the Framework Masterplan and Vision Document produced by Node (Appendix 1), which confirms that development can be located outside of areas considered to be at risk of flooding. As set out above, SLR consider that the EA’s flood mapping could potentially be overexaggerating the extent of risk across the site. Therefore, the approach in the concept plan is considered to be a conservative approach, in the absence of any hydraulic modelling having been undertaken to date.
