Object to sites south of Warwick, Whitnash and Leamington:
No evidence for vast numbers of new houses talked about.
Infrastructure cannot cope with more, roads, schools cannot cope.
Water supply problems following development at Warwick Gates eventually sorted out, but likely to return with further building. Surface water on roads still a problem and leads to blockage of drains and local flooding.
Loss of valuable agricultural land at a time when it is needed to grow more food.
Lot of disused buildings have now been renovated but pockets of land remain. Ford foundry earmarked for commercial but cavalier with green belt, so should accept. Building in small pockets or on brownfield sites more difficult but need to be more innovative.
