Draft Local Plan Review

Representation ID: 103

Received: 08/01/2017

Respondent: Ms Susan Agnama

Representation Summary:

I am not convinced that the Council is able to reconcile the Green policy agenda with the proposed housing development for Balsall Common.

Full text:

Suggest the Council's green policy is unrealistic and at odds in this part of the Borough - With HS2 likely to come on stream, traffic, and increased airport traffic over the village, how does the Council intend to reduce the noise and pollution around Balsall Common?

Does the Council intend to insist that housing developers create new green spaces for residents? will we need more GP practices? more schools? has the required infrastructure been considered vis a vis "protecting and enhancing the environment"? Council should realistically balance the need for development while protecting the quality of life in Balsall Common.
