Kenilworth Neighbourhood Plan - Submission

Representation ID: 71141

Received: 13/05/2018

Respondent: Finham Brook Flood Action Group

Representation Summary:

I am very pleased to see the inclusion of additional policy KP22, Flooding, in the final draft of the document.
However, I am concerned that the wording is not specific enough to give guidance to developers as to what is or isn't acceptable, or which areas are covered by the policy (e.g. is it meant to cover residential/commercial areas?). There is a risk that this policy as currently worded may risk excluding the possibility of the use of natural flood management within the Kenilworth area in the future.
