Here are the biggest local planning stories from the past week.

Travellers

Parish councillors have raised a series of concerns as they objected to plans to create a new traveller site on the outskirts of Warwick.

A part-retrospective application for the site along Henley Road near the M40 was submitted earlier this year after Warwick District Council (WDC) enforced a temporary stop notice for the development.

Building work had begun in May before planning permission was granted, and the local authority has since issued another stop notice.

New Community Centre

A planning application for a new "modern and interesting" community centre in Warwick has been submitted to the district council.

If approved, the scheme will see the new Priory Pools Community Centre built at the edge of Priory Pools Park in Warwick.

The business case for the new £2 million centre has already been backed by Warwick District Council and the project will see nearly two decades of work come to fruition.

Sports Pavilion

Council planners have given the green light to plans for a "purpose built sports pavilion" at Racing Club Warwick FC.

A planning application for the Townsend Meadow ground was approved by Warwick District Council this week, and will see the portacabin changing rooms demolished to make space for the new facility.

Plans state the new building will provide step free access and be fully accessible for disabled users.
