Representation Summary:

Land capacity:
Covid 19 consequences not been taken into account.
Likely there will be less need for offices, and an increase in windfall sites as offices become redundant.
Additional capacity in Solihull Town Centre for residential use and at Arden Cross is likely above that in Plan.
These sites should be considered ahead of destroying sensitive Green Belt, in conformity with Para. 68 of the NPPF.
Quoting Professor Wenban-Smith: “Over provision can never be corrected; under provision can be corrected later when needs are better defined.”

Change suggested by respondent:

Increase capacities for Solihull Town Centre sites and Arden Cross
