Alternative Sites Consultation

Representation ID: 44907

Received: 26/03/2010

Respondent: Anna Fitzpatrick

Representation Summary:

Why can't the empty houses in and around Leamington Spa be developed and provide housing in town. My house has been underpinned twice and my neighbour's garden flood regularly because of the clay soil up here. More housing leading to more flooding. Too many houses in a small rural area. Ruin the area with buildings where there are already houses for development in the area with facilities in situ and no need for more pressure on resources and less pollution.
