Green Belt North of Leamington. i object.
I object because:
1.The Exceptional Circumstances required by the NPP Framework to justify removal of greenbelt land have not been demonstrated. Other , better and nearer sites to support Coventry's housing needs. have already been identified by WDC in conjunction with Coventry CC
The Green Belt land at Milverton should be one of the last on the list of what is available

2. If the houses are for Coventry's needs then they are in the wrong place, leading to more traffic congestion in traveling to Coventry.

3. The proposed railway station will not work as there is a deep cutting where it is proposed

4. The proposals include some light industry. What relevance is that to Coventry's perceived housing needs

5. The area is great for walkers The prime farmland important resource as are the wildlife habitats.

6. The green space between Leamington and Warwick will be further reduced . the pleasant approach to the North end of Leamington Spa will be seriously affected. Green Belt is what it is: a "green belt' separating one area of development from another and should not be eroded
