Village Housing Options and Settlement Boundaries

Representation ID: 60971

Received: 17/01/2014

Respondent: Mr Keith Knott

Representation Summary:

The proposed quantity of 80 new dwellings is too high a number for the village to reasonably absorb and maintain its character. This should be reduced to a maximum of 50 over the next 15 years, which is still a large increase, beyond what would normally be expected for village growth.

It is not acceptable to turn Warwick district into an overpopulated suburbia - Leek Wootton already has issues with through traffic, and large increases in housing both here and close by in Kenilworth will lead to significant deterioration in the environment.
