- Unsustainable site proved by large amount of proposed mitigation, some unachievable.
- Most adverse effects of sites proposed in Plan, including surrounded by 9 Local Wildlife Sites and ancient woodland.
- Readily available alternative sites such as Tidbury Green golf club:
o Does not flood on proposed housing areas
o Lower Green Belt score
o Not surrounded by LWS
o Equally accessible to the Whitlocks End station
o Could provide green and blue corridor with public footpaths and cycleways to new Lowbrook Farm development, a green lung between Bromsgrove and Soliull
- Likely that development will take place in future on green space of Site BL1
Part of Site BL1 should be deleted from Plan.
