Preferred Options Consultation - Land at Stratford Road, Warwick
Representation ID: 67339
Received: 12/12/2014
Respondent: Mrs Amber Hemming
Severn Trent Water are unwilling to provide access to the site across their land and the current narrow farm track leading to the site from Longbridge would be inadequate, including for Emergency Vehicles. The farm track would be totally unsuitable. Accessing the site from Longbridge would place the main entrance to the site next to a Grade 2 listed building (Longbridge Manor)
The Council's SA identified air, water and soil as of significant concern. Suggested that these issues could be 'mitigated' but have provided little detail.
Site is close to a sewage works and a busy motorway and not suitable for a permanent residential development, particularly one where children will live. Health and safety issues.
The site is on a designated flood plain within flood zones 2 and 3. and caravans are considered "highly vulnerable". No details given of mitigation and cost
Impact on the local economy, especially Tournament Fields
