Representation ID: 10046
Received: 15/03/2019
Respondent: Mr T Khan
Agent: DS Planning
It is noted and it is agreed that Hockley Heath should be a settlement where
limited and proportionate development is accepted. New development will
assist with the future viability and vitality Hockley Heath provided development is proportionate to the settlement, in the right location.
However, it is considered that a site in a more central location within the settlement would be preferable exhibiting equal if not better credentials in respect of Green Belt, accessibility, landscape and deliverability than Site 25 Land off School Road Hockley Heath.
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.
