Solihull Draft Local Plan

In general, I support the submissions of the Knowle, Dorridge and Bentley Heath Neighbourhood Forum

In particular, I am opposed to the building of 750 houses to the south of Knowle (No. 9 on the Schedule of Allocated Housing sites). I would support the re-building of Arden Academy and the construction of up to 450 houses to fund it but more than that would destroy the current ambience of the area.

I am very much opposed to the loss of Solihull Mind and find it hard to understand how you could possibly contemplate the loss of this important facility particularly at this time when great efforts are being made to increase awareness of and support for those blighted by mental health issues.
