I feel at the moment felt that the council has not properly considered the representations on the local plan submitted to them by residents and the community.
Adverse impacts on air quality and health have not been satisfactorily assessed or tackled. Background evidence to the plan gloss over the importance of the Air Quality Monitoring Areas of Warwick, Leamington and Kenilworth where levels of NOx generated from traffic are at illegal levels with the claim that the problem will be overcome in the future by cleaner motor vehicles. This is disputed by a number of scientists and commentators and would be a risky course of action.There have been serious shortcomings in the processes the council has used in the development of the plan.
In the case of the neglect and destruction of crucial parts of the WDC asset 'Emscote Gardens Flood Defence' (CV344QB) through inappropriate housing expansion and over development, against expert recommendation and local opinion, it is clear that there is a strong possibility that where this incident occurred only in the very recent past, repeats can easily occur again.

This section ignores the existing air pollution problems in Warwick, and is therefore disingenuous in seeking healthly lives without giving the issue consideration in placing concentrations of housing south of Warwick

Centaur Homes object to parts a and b of this policy. Part a should promote developments for all.Fuel poverty is connected to household income and local authorities should promote energy efficient housing across the whole market. It is considered that this issue can be best addressed through Building Regulations.

The inclusion of these policies is welcomed and strongly supported.

Whilst we agree with and support part (c) of HS1, namely that design and layout of development will be important to minimise the potential for crime and anti-social behaviour and improve community safety, delivery of expanded and new police infrastructure will be vital as well. This has been accepted by the Council in its 'Draft Infrastructure Delivery Plan - April 2014'.

Local plans should "take account of and support local strategies to improve health, social and cultural wellbeing for all". The National Planning Practice Guidance (NPPG) refers to promoting access to healthier food

6.4 The content of this policy is noted. It is the case, however, that all elements of this policy are already included within other draft policies of the Plan. By way of example, providing homes to meet needs of older people is covered in Policy H0, contributing to the development of high quality, safe and convenient cycling and walking network is addressed in Policy BE1 and minimising the potential for crime and anti social behaviour is covered in proposed Policy HS7. It is therefore not clear what the policy adds to the Plan in terms of effectiveness. The Council are therefore invited to consider whether it is necessary to retain this policy in the Plan.
