* Background to HFBP and 2 HELAA submissions which have been 'sifted out'. The sites located on the former RAF Honiley airfield should be reconsidered and the location possibly considered as a new settlement.
* The land is 'Grey Belt'.
* The serious shortfall of non strategic employment land that HFBP should help meet.
* The emerging plan is internally inconsistent approach to former airfields within the plan. The site of former RAF Honiley has been forgotten.
* Serious concerns on the robustness of the process being followed leading to uncertainty.

* A single local plan should be produced, rather than a 2-part plan, to provide certainty.
* There is no timescale for Part 2.
* Support for the 25 year time horizon but, given the lengthy timescale for new settlements to come forward the immediately available land at HFBP should be brought forward to meet the shortfall of non-strategic employment land.
* Given the sifting out of the 2 previously submitted Call for Site submissions these are reattached for reconsideration.

The plan sets out five overarching principles.

Our concern on these principles is that they could apply anywhere and imply there is nothing distinctly ‘South Warwickshire’ about them. A major omission is that the vision does not seem to give sufficient emphasis to economic growth, with the strategic objective constraining this under the ‘well-designed and beautiful’ South Warwickshire principle.

Strategic Objective 3 disappointingly relates this to the overarching principle, “A well-connected South Warwickshire” before listing a host of non-transport related infrastructure considerations. The principle should relate to supporting infrastructure ‘in the round’ without undue transport emphasis.

Through examples it is suggested that the vision, the over-arching principles and strategic objectives require a re-think.

Generally no as it is considered the primary purpose of the Plan should be to meet the growth requirements expected of South Warwickshire in a sustainable way.

The emerging plan appears to be focused on strategic scale developments and ‘big players’ whereas a more balanced approach is necessary. There also appears to be a strong ‘urban-focussed’ agenda when a more balanced approach is required, given the prevailing rural character of the plan area.

This is the case with the potential allocation of land for employment development at Holly Farm Business Park.

* Covers the nature, success and importance of the business community at Holly Farm Business Park.
* Its strategic location close to nearby markets in the West Midlands conurbation and Coventry.
* Sets out the case supporting further growth at HFBP and the need to reconsider the 'sifting out' process in the Part 1 HELAA.
* Location as part of the former RAF Honiley airfield; needs consideration as does the potential for expansion in the short term to help meet non-strategic employment land needs.
* The HELAA conclusions need urgent reconsideration.

As a large brownfield site, our clients would support the consideration of a new settlement at the former Long Marston Airfield but make the observation that if this applies at Long Marston then for consistency the same consideration should apply to the former Airfield at RAF Honiley. The land at RAF Honiley, including Holly Farm Business Park has the added advantage of strategic location closer to the West Midlands conurbation and Coventry. The reset of the planning system in December 2024 also means that development at Holly Farm Business Park would be considered as Grey Belt.
