Alternative Sites Consultation

Representation ID: 43827

Respondent: Dr Erwin Verwichte

Representation Summary:

I am totally opposed to the plan to build houses on the green belt between Coventry and Kenilworth.

This area does not only provide a separation between the towns, it is also a beautiful nature haven, popular with people from Kenilworth, Burton Green and Tile Hill. Developing the area for housing would utterly destroy that beauty. It would cause congestion and make the rest of the nature in the area untenable. The proposed high-speed rail track through the area is already a blow.

If this development goes ahead, you may as well call Kenilworth a district of South Coventry.
