Solihull Local Plan (Draft Submission) 2020
Representation ID: 10761
Received: 11/12/2020
Respondent: Ms Celia O'Donovan
All government & independent studies agree that an allocation of new housing is justified and warranted within this area. It is also clear that:
(1) recent new housing has contributed little in terms of improvement to local facilities; and
(2) the long-term viability of quality learning in Arden Academy is unsustainable on the current site, it being long-overdue for re-development but having no means by which to undertake this work.
(3) proposals align to KDBH NF policies
The proposals outlined in the Concept Masterplan therefore represent a balanced, justified, legally compliant and sound basis on which to meet these needs.
