Respondent: Mrs Ruth Vella

Representation Summary:

Why are the council ignoring the District Habitat Assessment, October 2008, which clearly states the area as 'not favourable for development'? The huge biodiversity impact to the site (clearly listed in the assessment), the fact that the site is Green Belt land with no indication from the council that all other options have been exhausted to make this a viable site and no plan detailing the additional infrastructure to service the new builds comprehensively shows the councils lack of consideration on all aspects. Warwick is also an historic town that cannot be ruined by 'urban sprawl'.
