Solihull Local Plan (Draft Submission) 2020

Representation ID: 10759

Received: 11/12/2020

Respondent: Mr Graeme Spencer

Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Yes

Representation Summary:

Having studied the plans I cannot agree to them. The additional housing proposed will put further strain on an already clogged village. Quite simply, the roads cannot cope with more traffic, the medical facilities cannot cope with more people, and schools cannot cope with more children.
Additionally, the character of Knowle as a village is going to be destroyed by this plan

Change suggested by respondent:

I would like either no properties to be built or simply reduced significantly in number. Consideration must be given to building on sites that are currently unused industrial land.
