Solihull Local Plan (Draft Submission) 2020

Duty to co-operate? Not specified

Representation Summary:

No statements of common ground have been prepared at the publication stage. It is unclear if effective and joint working has been undertaken, particularly in respect of unmet housing needs from the HMA. There is a significant gap in the Council’s evidence base on meeting its legal obligations under the Duty.

The housing need across the HMA beyond 2031 has been overlooked. There could be an emerging unmet need for some 39,605 dwellings for the period 2031 to 2036.

Solihull must engage on how to address the significant shortfall in housing needs of the Black Country. Delaying further consideration does not meet the legal test under the 2011 Act.
