Solihull Local Plan (Draft Submission) 2020

Representation ID: 13951

Received: 14/12/2020

Respondent: Mrs M Joyce

Agent: Tyler Parkes Partnership Ltd

Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Yes

Representation Summary:

The definition of the ‘UK Central Hub Area’ is imprecise and inconsistently applied within the Plan and supporting evidence. Some definitions include land at Blythe Valley Park, North Solihull, Solihull Town Centre which are areas not included within the UK Central Solihull Hub documents provided as evidence. It is unclear as to where the proposed 2,740 dwellings are being provided.

The housing contribution from the ‘UK Central Hub Area’ is not clearly defined and there is a reliance on documents provided in evidence (but not to be adopted) which are subject to change.

The quantum of dwellings and delivery timeframe is inconsistent within the Plan and supporting evidence.

Change suggested by respondent:

The terms for the ‘UK Central Hub’ should be rationalised, clearly defined and used accordingly.

A clear policy on the UK Central Hub housing contribution - the housing contribution should be clearly identified within the Policies Map and a Concept Masterplan for each site, in the same manner as other allocated sites.

The quantum of dwellings and timeframe for delivery as quoted within the Plan and supporting evidence should be consistent.
