Full text:

The main concerns of residents are that the green belt should be retained, particularly between Coventry and kenilworth; only limited infill housing should be allowed to meet the needs of first time buyers and people wishing to downsize; public transport links to Kenilworth should not be reduced and a sensible level of funding for small rural schools should be maintained.

HS2 has blighted housing values and the construction process will affect village life, a site for a new village hall may have to be found as a consequence. Some houses in the Burton Green locality may have to be demolished and there should be consideration of a means to re-house them in the immediate locality.
