Draft Local Plan Review

Representation ID: 1683

Received: 17/02/2017

Respondent: Mrs Jennifer Whitehill

Representation Summary:

Agree with KDBH Forum views and oppose proposals for 1150 new homes in Knowle as disproportionate, other locations have not received equal attention and should be revisited. The issue of rebuilding Arden is complex - I support this in principle (great legacy) but it appears the cost of such is 750 homes, all or nothing, and the loss of much of the MIND land. The village cannot sustain this on top of recent/current build. Some build is appropriate and I urge consideration of more modest levels that residents feel more appropriate and consistent with proposed build profile across Solihull.
