Loss of sports fields - Land is on high grade green belt - Impact on local wildlife and ancient woodland - located in a flood zone one - character of the village adversely affected - sense of community/identity compromised.
Solihull Council’s Local Plan Review is now inviting comments about "Site 4"– which means proposals to build 350 homes in Dickens Heath.
Below in details I explain why I'm against your proposals:
- There are numerous sports fields - The land is high grade GREEN BELT – Government policy is to protect Green Belt and develop Brownfield land first.
- Site 4 is surrounded by Local Wildlife Sites and Ancient Woodland – we should work how to protect it and not how to make easy to destroy it. Deers, badgers, bats and other wildlife are still there.
- Road network in area is already overloaded.
- Site 4 = flood Zone 1 and that can only make a trouble in future.
- The character of the Village will be adversely affected
- Sense of community and identity compromised.
