Representation Summary:

Objects to the proposed building of houses on land next to Hatton Park on the following grounds:
* The area is greenbelt and should not be considered for new housing;
* There are plenty of brownfield sites around Warwick which are far more suitable;
* It will worsen existing peak time traffic congestion on Birmingham Road; and
* The proposed development will increase demand for school places. Local schools are at full capacity, and children face having to travel to school outside of the area already.

I wish to object to the proposed building of houses on land next to Hatton park. This area is greenbelt and should not even be considered for new housing. There are plenty of brownfield sites around Warwick which are far more suitable.
I live on the Birmingham road and between 7.30AM and 9.15AM and again between 4.30PM and 6.45pm traffic is stationery due to volume of cars.
But most of all the schools are FULL. My son goes to Ferncumbe school, but as the school is now popular my 4 year old daughter faces going to a different school miles away. This is unacceptable, therefore more children on introduced to the area will make it even worse.
