My thoughts are: -

Let's assume that central government want you to produce a plan, and your proposed number of houses are to be built in the area: -

1. We don't have the transport infrastructure to cope and the 'improvements' you suggest will be insufficient. We have the Rivers Avon and Leam moving east-west through the district with inadequate crossing points. Building off the Banbury Road Warwick will require more vehicles to cross the current and old bridge in the town centre. This would need replacing at6 great costs and inconvenience before any building can take place. The idea that each new development will have its own industry seems wonderful but in the real world people don't and can't move when they change jobs or can't afford to buy houses where they work. Some commute into Birmingham or to London but are unable to get to Warwick station by public transport so are forced to drive to Warwick Parkway where more land is to be lost to a tarmac car park. THE TRANSPORT STRUCTURE CANNOT COPE NOW. DO SOMETHING BEFORE THE BUILDING STARTS!

2. Building the housing estates that we have seen in UK over the last 50 years, invariably creates ghettos of soul-less and character-less housing in the same style. Such developments can be seen throughout the country where you, the planners, have failed to lead. Warwick should lead by allowing private individuals to buy plots of land and build their own houses within planning guidelines. This way we will not suffer from the uniformity of style that we face wherever we go. Look around the district to see what's considered good and what's considered bad - Kenilworth has lost its identity long ago by developments of similar properties that have no connection with the old. The High Street once the centre of the town is now dead! A good street is Northumberland Road with individual houses on a wide tree-lined road. SMALLER INTEGRATED BUILDING BY INDIVIDUALS OR SMALLER DEVELOPERS. CREATE SOMETHING THAT IS GOING TO BE PART OF WARWICK AND NOT AN UNSIGHTLY GHETTO THAT HAS NO CONNECTION WITH THE TOWN.

3. Warwick will get the bulk of the houses. The county town does not have a fire station, a police station, or a decent library. Planners have destroyed much of it over the years by taking part of Priory Park for WCC car parking. You now talk of Park & Ride schemes when these should have been set up years ago for WCC staff. PRESERVE WARWICK AND NOT LET IT GET TOTALLY LOST AS A SUBURB OF LEAMINGTON.

4. And i haven't mentioned the risk of flooding caused by more hard surfaces giving instant run off. Currently drains overflow as they have not been maintained. Nor mentioned the state of the roads - will increased road surfaces mean even worse maintenance and pot holes. Will WDC & WCC staff not report them and the road signs covered in moss that they MUST see as they drive to their free car parks when you require the public to pay.
