All future developments must provide for garden and growing space as an initial part of the development plan with a definite designated area allocated to allotment use. It is predicted by the government that over 2.16 million homes will be without a private garden by 2010 all the more reason to plan for allotments now

Document should identify and declare the Council's 'Vision' for the long term use of Warwick Castle Park, as a major untapped recreational resource for the District's residents, and visitors. It could/should be a major 'destination' for the linear Parkway referred to in Comment (Item3b).

Because they are planning build on existing precious open space - e.g. 1E of Plan 5 (land West of Europa Way) this is not protecting it.

Kings Hill is a valuable and rare resource close to the suburbs - its development will cause urban sprawl on a scale akin to Birmingham and Leicester.

Green Belt land has special significance and will help preserve open areas for future generations. New housing should be on areas that already have some development and/or need regeneration.

Allotment land should be excluded from any option because of its enormous amenity and ecological value. It is important that allotment land is provided as part ofnew developments and suggest there should be provision of one new allotment for every ten new houses.
Full account should be taken of ecological value of residential gardens, especially their value as wild life corridors. Strongly advocate gardens should not normally be considered for development. We note that Options for Growth document does acknowledge the ecological value of such spaces.

Pleased that any major new development in Kenilworth will be sited away from the heritage and major green assets of the Town. However, it worth pointing out that despite facilities like Abbey Fields, the average green space per person in the town will still be less than its neighbors.

Open green spaces can contribute to an integrated green infrastructure network throughout the district. The Trust believes should these open green spaces be included within a green infrastructure network, policies focusing green infrastructure contributions from the CIL will assist in achieving this strategic objective, by providing a framework for investment to complement areas of current
open space deficit and degradation.

Open space is part of infrastructure. In identifying potential green field development sites, as well as identifying the number of dwellings that will be accommodated, there should be a stipulation of minimum Open Space allocation as a percentage of area. However, on brownfield sites, it may well be that existing local open space provision is underutilized or overprovided, so nothing further is required. Alternatively, if analysis shows that the existing with the new is underprovided, a levy or the old section 106 agreement, can require a contribution to allow expansion or improvement of existing facilities

Natural England support the preparation of an infrastructure delivery plan to assist in the delivery of high quality open space and we recommend that this is linked to the provision of multi-functional green infrastructure. Natural England's green space standards state that every home should be within 300 m of an accessible natural green space of at least two hectares (ha) which is equivalent in size to two football pitches. In addition each home should also have access to: at least one accessible 20 ha site within 2 km; at least one accessible 100 ha site within 5 km and; at least one accessible 500 ha site within 10 km.
