Representation Summary:

Object to site at:
West of Europa Way
Understand that this does not include need for supporting infrastructure and provision for more offices, factories. Further land and outlay required for schools, sports fields, and other leisure facilities, shops, surgeries, churches, car parking (including park and ride), not to mention utilities, sewage and flood prevention from a greatly increased urban footprint. What consultation taken place with Severn Trent etc?
Serious impact on M40 junctions and town centres of Leamington and Warwick. Congestion at start and end of working day already bad with limited bridges over and under rivers, canals and railway lines will become worse. Those living in towns will be trapped by increased gridlock and historic buildings will be subjected to greater risk of traffic damage and air pollution.
Development at Woodside Farm will detract from Mallory Court Hotel which is successful business in pleasant environment attractive to visitors and provides local employment.
Extensive development along Harbury Lane will spoil countryside as it will be along ridge line and will impinge and impact on Bishops Tachbrook.
Wholly inappropriate to consider release of land at Finham to Coventry City Council for their own building requirements. Coventry will still have economic benefits of having district residents using their facilities.
Consider it appropriate to develop relatively small housing development at Hatton Park and share requirement around other small pockets of land to spread impact.
