Respondent: Mrs Michelle Smith

Legally compliant? No

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? No

Representation Summary:

This development will take out a precious Boundary line for Cheswick Green.
More green fields lost to housing developments has an enormous impact on flooding which we already have in this area.
We need to protect our green open spaces for future generations, thinking of people's mental health.
Infrastructure cannot cope during peak times as it is.
NHS services in this area are already at breaking point.
Stop using Shirley/Cheswick Green/ Dickens Heath as a getout -
why not use areas in Knowle / Dorridge - or is this because Councillors live in these areas?

Change suggested by respondent:

The council should not build on site 12 because of the reasons above.
Building should be on derelict and brownfield sites.
Leave this area as a natural habitat and respect the boundary.
