OBJECTS to the removal of Green Belt indicated in Map 8 for Sub Regional Employment. This proposal has already been ruled against by the Secretary of State for a series of very valid reasons and is contrary to the Greenbelt Review. WDC should not be wasting public monies by pursuing a fundamentally flawed plan that would allow Coventry to sprawl unchecked into rural Warwickshire.

The Green Belt within Baginton prevents inappropriate developments. Removing Green Belt status will allow inappropriate developments to go ahead.
OBJECT to the Rosswood Farm (H19) development being on land where Green Belt status has been removed. This development, if allowed, would become part of Baginton and must be protected from future inappropriate development, as discussed above.
OBJECT to the removal of Green Belt indicated in Map 8 for Sub Regional Employment. Appeal previously dismissed by the Secretary of State.

Proposed development unsustainable - inadequate infrastructure and transport networks
Commuting likely to be towards Coventry to north or east to sub-regional site - insufficient account taken of vehicle movements affecting surrounding area
While some mitigation proposed but it would not support commuting north / east

The plan for 1800 new homes, with a maximum capacity of 4000 homes, is not sustainable from a transport and road infrastructure viewpoint. Amenities for the development listed within the Local Plan, including schools, GP Surgeries, shopping and bus routes are all identified as being north of the proposed site and within Coventry. The existing road infrastructure in Finham and Green Lane are incapable of supporting this development, with little room for any improvements. Similarly, access westward towards Gibbet Hill is not sustainable.
As this development is highlighted as supporting a need within Coventry, daily commutes for workers are also likely to be northwards, or potentially eastwards where sub-regional employment land has been suggested. Insufficient account has been taken of vehicle movement from the site and how this will affect the surrounding area.
Baginton Parish Council acknowledges that some mitigation has been proposed such as New 1, Mod 20, b) on page 19 - 'a new road linking the A46 Stoneleigh junction with Kirby Corner and subsequently to the A452 or A45.' However, such a road would not support commuting northwards or eastwards towards the areas where sub-regional employment growth is suggested. The proposal for new roads recognises and acknowledges that issues exist, but does not adequately address them. It is inconceivable that up to 4000 new homes built to support the growth & development of Coventry does not have the road and transport infrastructure to deliver these residents into the areas where they are needed. The proposal is unsustainable and unsound. Baginton Parish Council OBJECTS
