I do not consider the Local plan to be sound for the reasons set out in the report submitted by the BARRAGE action group in response to the Local Plan review:

Wilson, W. McGarry, J. Wilson, J. “Part A: Objection to the proposed allocation of Site BC3 Windmill Lane/Kenilworth Road Balsall Common.” 29/11/2020.

From the detailed report that the BARRAGE Action group has pulled together you can see the valid points being raised and the amount of time and effort that has been put into this. I fully appreciate that new houses are required and no-one wants them on their own doorstep but the reasoning and evidence that the BARRAGE group has collated is sound and show’s that this site is clearly not suitable and there really isn’t enough housing to support this level of disruption and impact on Balsall Common and the environment in the short or long term.

As such, I am objecting to the allocation of Site BC3 for housing.
