Draft Local Plan Review

SMBC policy should be extended to require developers of sites greater than 100 units to work with and consult with existing sports bodies and clubs in the immediate locality to identify opportunities to enhance existing facilities. Developers are very keen to promote their houses as being in vibrant communities with lots of sports clubs without ever actually engaging with them in a meaningful manner.
I have added some specific thoughts with regard to the Barratts Farm site in Balsall Common in the comments on individual sites (rep. 1142)
