Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation
Representation ID: 7606

Respondent: Mrs K Phillips
I would very much like the Council to enforce the covenants and actively seek and enable sports use. Particularly concerned that Pow Grove to be protected from impact of development, and that right of way through the wood is managed.
Local Development Plan Site 245 - Ex Rugby Pitches Sharmans Cross Road
I would like to object to the above proposed development on the following grounds:-
1. As I understand it the land has covenants restricting and thereby protecting the site for sports use, and if this were now to be ignored it undermines the local democratic process. I would very much like the Council to enforce the covenants and actively seek and enable such use.
2. POW GROVE: I am particularly concerned that the mixed broad leaf wood (SINC) known as Pow Grove (Grid Ref. SP136795) and owned by SMBC should be protected from any possible erosion that a housing development threatens. There is also a right of way from Welcombe Grove through the wood and I am concerned about how this would be managed?
