REPORT ON THE SOUTH WARWICKSHIRE LOCAL PLAN CALL FOR SITES
The Parish Council has reviewed the recent publication of the South Warwickshire Local Plan Call for sites submissions for Salford Priors. Publication of the Call for Sites is in no way an endorsement by either of the two District Councils that a site is either suitable for development or will be included within the Local Plan itself. These sites have not yet been analysed and as such it is unlikely that all sites will be taken forward as the plan progresses.
The Parish Council would like to draw your attention to the Call for Sites map on the South Warwickshire Local Plan at www.southwarwickshire.org.uk/swlp.

WHY A CALL FOR SITES
The suitability of sites for development and addressing infrastructure constraints are equally important. The reality is that as the local planning authorities for South Warwickshire were obliged to prepare a Local Plan that meets their development needs, and manages development proposals. Further sites for employment and housing are also required.
The Call for Sites is the starting point for that plan-making process.
The preparation of the South Warwickshire Local Plan is being carried out by:
Stratford on Avon District Council & Warwick District Council.

The Parish Council is actively monitoring the South Warwickshire Local Plan process as it considers that Salford Priors is at high risk for future development along the A46 corridor; unfortunately our District or County Councillors have not attended recent Parish Council meetings to hear the concerns or views of the Parish Council.
