Strategic Growth Location SG22 Question

Representation ID: 95664

Received: 24/02/2025

Respondent: Studley Parish Council and Sambourne Parish Council

Agent: David Hartley

Representation Summary:

The Councils wish to make specific representations regarding the potential inclusion of this land as a Preferred Strategic Growth Location in the draft SWLP. This does not imply support for other policies or allocations in the Plan. The government's move to review Green Belt restrictions is acknowledged, yet the modest amount of 'Grey Belt' land in South Warwickshire is unlikely to make a large contribution to housing targets. The SG22 proposal would transform the rural hamlet of Middletown into an urban area, impacting local identity and resources. Additionally, issues related to education, health, transportation, and agricultural value highlight the unsuitability of this site for development.

Respondent: Studley Parish Council and Sambourne Parish Council

Agent: Sambourne Parish Council

Representation Summary:

There are three comments that the Parish Council would like to make concerning the SWLP Consultation:

1. We were disappointed with the length of the Consultation. A period of 12 weeks would be more appropriate, given the scale of the Consultation.
2. It was felt that the mechanism to engage via the SWLP website inhibited people from replying. The process was far too complicated. In addition, the wording and clarity was poor, making it difficult to respond page by page.
3. It has come to our knowledge that many people are still totally unaware of the Consultation. The brevity of the window to respond has limited the opportunity of more people being given an opportunity to have a voice.
