Draft Local Plan Review

Representation ID: 1370

Received: 15/02/2017

Respondent: Mr Michael Fairbrother

Representation Summary:

While the policies are sensible - I do NOT agree with including Balsall Common in the same category as Knowle, Castle Bromwich, Marston Green,, Hobs Moat, Kingshurst etc. The centre and available amenities are MUCH smaller and do not support the 20% allocation. This means that significantly improving the centre of Balsall Common including the provision of car parking has to be done BEFORE any new building goes ahead as we are already overloaded!
