Comment
Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation
Representation ID: 10036
Received: 15/03/2019
Respondent: Mr T Khan
Agent: DS Planning
The proposed amendment to the Green Belt boundary on the eastern side of
Balsall Common will have significant implications for development over and
above the allocations proposed. Lifting Green Belt restrictions on land will
put considerable pressures for development and the future growth of Balsall
Common and its elevation in settlement hierarchy within the Borough with
insufficient consideration on how this will be dealt with within this
supplementary consultation.
Also, part of the proposed allocation sites and those areas not allocated for
development lie within the highest performing area within the Green Belt
Assessment.
This is the response of Mr Taj Khan, Sid Kelly and John Green to the supplementary
consultation by Solihull Council on the Solihull Draft Local Plan January 2019. The
purpose of the response is to comment on the draft Plan and promote the site at 15,
59, & 61 Jacobean Lane Knowle for inclusion as a housing allocation within the Plan
and land north of Jacobean Lane being removed from the Green Belt and to support
the removal of land from the Green Belt to rectify anomalies and for consistency.
