The requirement for 12,300 homes is excessive. This level of growth is not required for jobs at unemployment is only 1.7%. Building an excess of new homes will only create an imbalance and cause commuting. The number of homes needed is 5,678. Development on prime agricultural land south of Harbury Lane and Gallows Hill is not needed and unnecessary, only Heathcote Farm should be considered. It will eventually lead to the coalescence of Bishops Tachbrook with Warwick and Whitnash. The rural landscape in this area must remain untouched. The infrastructure south of the town is already suffering, particularly the schools. 100 to 150 new homes at Bishops Tachbrook is excessive, the housing need survey identified a local need for 25 to 30 homes for the next 15 years.
