Revised Development Strategy

Representation ID: 54031

Received: 29/07/2013

Respondent: Barford Residents Association

Representation Summary:

The Council is adopting an Interim Level of Growth of 12,300 homes between 2011 and 2029.
The interim level of growth selected by the Council is much higher than is wanted by the residents of Warwick District. In the original consultation in 2011, 58% of the respondents were in favour of low growth. In the report on the Preferred Options consultation in 2012, 97% of the respondents objected to the level of growth. This level of growth is being forced on the District by external pressures and is not justified to support the needs of Warwick District.
