Draft Local Plan Review

Representation ID: 1461

Received: 16/02/2017

Respondent: Mr Cliff Dobson

Representation Summary:

Site 16 is within the Meriden Gap and contributes to the purposes of the Green Belt, safeguarding the countryside from encroachment and helping prevent coalescence between settlements. The proposal would result in the permanent loss of this significant green belt site.

In addition, the development of housing on the scale proposed will aggravate existing congestion on Hampton Lane, Lugtrout Lane and Damson Parkway, and would create immense pressure at the junction of these roads and Solihull By-pass.
