Support the need to meet the demand for small/medium family homes and two bedroomed flats. Support approach for greater flexibility on smaller urban sites. Flexibility should apply to all development on previously developed land, where there is a need to assimilate new development into an existing urban context. Where the existing context is poor or degraded the opportunity to create a new high quality built context should be pursued.

We support the Council's preferred option on the location of new housing (paragraph 10.22), on the assumption that there is clarity on the DPD in which smaller sites can be brought forward.

People who are under privileged in any way need relatively more support from the rest of the community. Have you got the right mix?

A better definition of what development is needed is required. Smaller properties could benefit the land some of the land noted as being part of the Registered Park and Garden for Guys Cliffe. Some of the land could provide much needed open space.

Clearly mix of housing types essential if people are to be housed efficiently, effectively and affordably. Preferred option does not show much of a mix will occur because it advocates more of the same as at Warwick Gates and other recent developments.

Not realistic to expect older people to downsize from family home by just moving to a smaller house. Most wish to retain independence and community links. If retirement villages for active elderly with range of social and leisure facilities, in immediate vicinity, people will choose to spend their autumn years in the company of others.
BTPC report identifies 2 potential sites: Wise Street and Southcrest Farm in Kenilworth.
Not for WDC to dictate housing mixes on particular sites because this is function of the marketplace supply and demand. Guidance can be given and results monitored and compared with data being received from bodies with housing interests to ensure that mix is as near right as possible but is moving target.

Do not wish to see a prescriptive housing mix included for the strategic sites to apply for the whole plan period. Any mix has to take account of need and local demand for housing.

The Plan should indicate locations for affordable housing and care villages unrelated to the market housing sites.

Predetermining housing mix is unnecessarily restrictive and removes the ability to respond rapidly to changes in demand.

Support, however, where significant regeneration/community gain can emerge from new development, other standards (notably social housing standards) may need to be treated on a site specific basis.

Would like to see more awareness of specific requirements of elderly residents in Core Strategy. Population of Leamington is increasingly an ageing population whose requirements need to be taken into account. Provision of suitable housing for elderly people to move on to would help release much needed family housing.
