Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 7920

Received: 13/03/2019

Respondent: Mr. John Peake

Representation Summary:

This area of historic pastureland should remain in the green belt, and is wholly unsuitable for housing development. Any past development of the Stud to include it as a Brownfield site indicates non-permitted development that SMBC should have been acted on contravenions. The site is on the extremity of the village and development,would contribute to A452 "sprawl" with a negative impact by increased
vehicle use with pollution and be distant from services. There is some merit in additional housing site allocation at the Kenilworth end of the village up to a bypass construction at that point,as a viable alternative.
