Please find below objection to proposed planning on green belt land in North Leamington:

Local amenity - the land proposed for development to the north of Leamington is an important amenity for exercise and recreation as there is very little publicly accessible space in this area

Green belt - Green belt land should not be developed when other suitable land is available in Leamington for development

Overall level of housing provision - There appears to be over provision of housing resulting from the Council relying on projections from a past period of exceptional growth

Coalescence of urban areas - The development will lead to Leamington, Old Milverton and Kenilworth merging into each other in future

Infrastructure - The current infrastructure cannot support the new development, it would take considerable investment and additional land to provide this infrastructure
