'To maintain .... growing economy...'. believe the word 'growing' should be omitted as growth per se unnecessary and unsustainable.
'...encourage sustainable growth...' . As above. Should be amended to read '...encourage a sustainable economy...'
Policy should encourage development only to meet local need, not encourage businesses/people to move into District.
Support Preferred Option, with exception of allocation 'if required....Kings Hill, Finham..' This wording too vague and seems to be discrepancy between Coventry's statement and that of WDC. Wording in WDC consultation seems to suggest that Finham would be to serve needs of Coventry. City state land is not needed and is down to WDC whether land is allocated.
Need an agreed joint policy.
