I agree as long as this allocation will be used to replace the important Green Belt, green infrastructure corridors and Wildbelt designations which should already be included in the Plan and given substantial weight. Green Belts shouldn't include housing allocations.

Land in between Kenilworth, Coventry and North Leamington would benefit from being designated an Area of Restraint. Developments over the last five years have led to the gap narrowing considerably. Designating it an Area of Restraint would ensure that the open nature is preserved and that the purposes of the green belt here are maintained. It would have an opposite, positive effect to that of possible development in SGs 1-6. SG06 in particular is agricultural land with leisure benefits offered by the rural footpaths. It therefore meets the criteria outlined in the draft policy.

11.10, 11.11, 11.12 and 11.13 all refer to designated areas with slightly different objectives and protection regimes. The final policies need to be clear as to the exact definitions in each case and to ensure there are no overlaps and contradictions. Too much complexity will be difficult for developers to address and may make it difficult for planning officers and planning committees to come to reasonable decisions. While there is clearly a need for enhanced protection of certain areas outside those covered in 11.1 it is important to avoid over-engineering the policies.

No. The areas of restraint are local landscape designations. There is no provision in the NPPF for the inclusion of local landscape designations in Local Plans. Paragraph 187a of the NPPF requires planning polices to protect and enhance “valued” landscapes only. The guidance in Section 15 of the NPPF is adequate to deal with local landscape matters.

I agree with the Policy Direction of Areas of Restraint and the extension to Warwick, however I do not see the need to review the existing areas within Stratford, these have been agreed and I see no justification to change them.
I also don't agree with the exemption of "unless the scheme has demonstrable community benefits and contributes significantly the Local Plan's core objectives" this is very vague and could be misused to open up these protected areas.

Draft Policy Direction 4's proposal to review Areas of Restraint and allow development for "community benefits" fundamentally undermines their protective purpose. AORs were specifically designated to preserve important open spaces and local character. Experience shows that "review" typically leads to weakening protections, while "community benefits" exceptions create dangerous precedents. Once an AOR's integrity is compromised by development, however small, it becomes increasingly difficult to resist further erosion. The cumulative impact of multiple "community benefit" developments could irreversibly damage these valuable open spaces.

Areas of Restraint are a necessary safeguard, as they flag up areas that have already had careful consideration. Of course developers would prefer not to have them as it’s one less thing to challenge.
I do not agree with a review of the Areas of Restraint as I question the motives in my longer reply. Respect previous decisions and put the time into regenerating brownfield areas.
The proposed policy is conveniently vague - it seeks to ensure no harm to identified areas unless there are ‘community benefits’ and it contributes to ‘core objectives’. See longer response.

These areas are very important to protect., and once gone are permanently lost.
These need to include not building or putting any development on flood plains.
This must include caravan sites, static van sites etc
They protect areas that are at high risk from developers.
