Representation Summary:

In summary to the representation above - this is an inappropriate expansion to the size of the village which has not been thought through appropriately. A smaller more compact increase may be acceptable with correct consultation.

I am extremely concerned and object to the plans for the following reasons:

Sustainability - The school is over subscribed and already being expanded. The road network will not support the excess traffic. There is only one route into Hampton Magna and we already have congestion from the railway station. Also excess parking as passengers try avoid parking charges and at times there is dangerous parking which creates problems and restricts access to emergency services.

Environment - This is part of the green belt and the impact will be substantial to plant, animal and will change the character of the village as well impacting the local amenities.

Size - The increase in houses built is excessive as we only have 600 houses and a further increase 0f 100 -150 is a growth of between 18 - 25% increase which is substantial. The services will not support this. Why is Kenilworth not being considered for expansion or why this increase not be acceptable to Kenilworth - PLEASE EXPLAIN.
