Solihull Local Plan (Draft Submission) 2020

Representation ID: 10837

Received: 13/12/2020

Respondent: Mrs Louise Bennett

Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Yes

Representation Summary:

This site is not fit to house a relocated Household Waste and Recycling facility as the area has already been heavily built on. It will add more traffic to an area already busy from existing houses and JLR traffic and which will only get busier if the plan for 700 new homes is approved. The site is a residential area and not suitable for waste facility.

Change suggested by respondent:

That the household waste facility, if it needs to be relocated, should move to a more suitable brownfield site on the edge of Solihull, not in a central part of it near to houses.
