I object to this option for the following reasons:
1) Local schools are already oversubscribed. WCC have already stated that the are not enough places for children already, hence the new super priority area. Suggesting places are available on the Woodloes is quite rediculous as this is hardly local.
2) Access to this plot is very dangerous. This is a 50 mile an hour area. It is very close to the Purser Drive junction and also close to the access to Budbrooke Lodge.
3) Hampton Road has been regularly flooded this Winter. The street drains clearly cannot cope with any more run off. This extra hardstanding will make this worse. The local fields have also been heavily water logged over the winter.
4) The site is very close to residential areas and Budbrooke lodge. There is noise implications to this. Caravans do not have the same noise insulation that houses do. This site is very open. A motor bike was recently tested on the access road and the noise amplification was awful.
5) This site would be very open and this wouldn't be in keeping with the local houses.
6) Compulsary purchase of the land would not give the land owners the value that the land is worth. As I believe this is a Warwick charity it is especially important that the full purchase potential is realised as the people of Warwick benefit from this money.
7) Local car parks are currently used as transit area travelling gypsies and also for travelling fairs and circus'. This is too much on top of this. In the last month alone area has seen circus, fair and travelling gypsies.
