Full text:

I refer specifically to sites 57, 6 and 11 in Balsall Common, most notably to site 57, Barretts Lane Farm. With over 1000 homes planned, I believe the percentage chosen to be built on green belt land in Balsall Common is unfair and unjust, in comparison to other areas of the borough. Approx 15% of the total planned. The village will not cope, Station St is already too busy at the best of times and the already overused Kenilworth Rd will struggle. There is a lack of transport, services, amenities and the schools are already full.
