Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation
Representation ID: 10086
Received: 15/03/2019
Respondent: Minton (CdeB) Ltd
Agent: DS Planning
Firstly, it is noted and it is agreed that Catherine de Barnes should be a settlement where limited and proportionate development is accepted. New development will assist with the future viability and vitality of such settlements as Catherine de Barnes provided they are proportionate to the settlement, in the right location and contribute to the health and well-being of the community. The site at Oak Farm should be included as an allocation but the allocation should include the land to the east of this proposed allocation and the west of Friday Lane (the full extent of site 136)
This is the response of Minton to the supplementary consultation by Solihull Council
on the Solihull Draft Local Plan January 2019. The purpose of the response is to
comment the draft Plan and promote the site at Oak Farm Catherine de Barnes for
inclusion as a housing allocation within the Plan. The response is by question order.
The original response to the Solihull Draft Local Plan 2016 consultation is also
attached which highlights the reasons why the full Oak Farm site should be an
allocation within the Local Plan. We have also carried out our own Green Belt
Assessment a copy of which is attached
