Draft Local Plan Review

Representation ID: 1693

Representation Summary:

I do not agree with the policies put forward by the plan. The scale of development in Balsall Common is surely counter to any purported protection of natural ecosystems, species diversity and the health providing qualities of the external environment for existing residents. important wildlife species (Bats, mice, amphibians, migrating birds, domestic birds etc) all reside within the focused areas. I personally am an active walker of the Meriden gap and wealth of public footpaths that will be lost. the considerable amount of additional run-off from development at Barratts Farm will contribute to flooding, and then there's HS2 to consider
