Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 9040

Received: 15/03/2019

Respondent: Mr Gary Lindop

Representation Summary:

Far too many houses are proposed to the east of Balsall Common which is highly unfair to our already busy and stretched village in conjunction with the current HS2 development.

Building on Barratts Farm would further narrow the Meriden Gap and continue the urbanisation of our beautiful countryside. It would destroy a huge swathe of Green Belt reaching as far as the Kenilworth Greenway which incorporates many footpaths, accessible and regularly used by the village community.

You are trying to encourage people to be physically active whilst taking away the green space which allows them to do so!!
