Yes

3.80 Yes, Taylor Wimpey generally supports the proposed broad content of the Part 1 plan. However, further supporting evidence is required at this stage as set out in the above representations, with greater guidance also required around the definition of strategic sites. The most sustainable and larger scales sites should be considered as the focus for this, particularly Land north of Leamington, promoted by Taylor Wimpey under these representations.

4.3 The Concept Masterplan and Vision Document (at Appendix 2 and 3 respectively) demonstrates how the following could be delivered at the Site [Land North of Leamington]: • Approximately 1,200 new homes (at around 38 dwellings per hectare) designed to accommodate a range of housing with a mix of house types, tenures and sizes to meet identified local needs. • Potential provision of a mixed-used community hub/centre and a 2 form entry primary school. • Potential Hospital Extension / employment land (2ha) on the north eastern boundary of the site • Potential main vehicular, pedestrian and cycle access from Kenilworth Road, with sustainable transport links including bus re-routing into the Site. With secondary access onto Sandy Lane. • Opportunities to connect to planned cycle improvements along the Kenilworth Road, providing a connection between Leamington Town Centre and Kenilworth. • Potential emergency, cycle and pedestrian access point onto Guys Cliffe Avenue. 4.4 Potential to provide approximately 38ha of structural landscape and public open space. The significant public open space can include sports pitches, play provision, allotments, community gardens and sustainable drainage features. Taylor Wimpey would welcome the opportunity to continue to discuss these emerging proposals with WDC and SDC in the near future.
