Comment
Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation
Representation ID: 10043
Received: 15/03/2019
Respondent: Mr T Khan
Agent: DS Planning
As indicated in the response to DLP consultation the land to the west of this
site was allocated for housing in the 2013 Local plan on condition that the former ammunition depot was reclaimed for open space or if not available an alternative development solution delivering open space was forthcoming.
This situation still exists and so calls into question the allocation. Also, the viability of the site may be affected dependent on any potential contamination issues as a consequence of the former use of the site
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.
