Respondent: Robert Johnson

Bringing such a large number of houses to the area south of Warwick Gates will cause problems:
Infrastructure - roads are congested at rush hour in south Leamington - 8,000 more cars will make situation worse.
Emergency services will not be able to cope with increase - have they been consulted?
Increased pollution - breathing problems and listed building cleaning.
Bishops Tachbrook is village with own community and all advantages that this brings. Intended growth would encroach on area between village and Leamington.
Alternatives:
Public opinion at previous consultation was that Finham was most popular area for new housing - Coventry's infrastructure better.
On campus housing for students would free housing in Leamington.
Brown field development - sites still unused - Peugeot plant at Ryton.
