Reference to council cariteria:
Local GP surgery does not have sufficient capacity for proposal.
Local schools are already oversubscribed.
Bus stop near site is dangerous as it stands.
Access to site is via a road which is known to be a high accident risk area.
Access to site is via a road which is a busy commuter route with no pedestrian access.
Site is adjacent to protected woodland, proposal would lead to irreparable damage.
Site is on the archaeological register, land is on historic toll site from medieval times, again proposal would lead to irreparable damage.
It would be impossible to integrate the proposal into the countryside without permanent damage to the character of the area.
As a regular visitor and exhibitor at the Warwickshire Exhibition Centre, the proposal will have severe impact upon this venue. This must not be permitted to happen.
