Representation Summary:

These sites would continue to put unnecessary strain on the already suffering local infrastructure and this is only going to get worse as additonal housing within the district grows. The ongoing battle with traffic around Europa way, the island by Myton road to name a few is just putting unnecessary strain on infrastructure. I feel rather than promote Warwick as a place to move to if we continue to drive these initiatives we will drive existing people from what is currently a beautiful and scenic county.

I find it difficult to understand why a number of these sites especially GT06 / GT09 / GT015 all are sited close to the outskirts of Warwick Gates, with the consultation already going on with the local Plan, it seems to be that our community are taking the brunt of many local council initiatives. We have only recently moved to the area and am disappointed with the view that we have to blur the lines of the green belt and country side that surrounds these area's. I cannot understand based on the councils criteria that these sites meets those basic fundamental principles. I am especially upset that Warwick Gates seems to be focused around a lot of the changes and i hope the council rethinks the impact they will place on our community.
