Draft Local Plan Review

Representation ID: 2716

Received: 17/02/2017

Respondent: Mr S Catton

Agent: Tyler Parkes Partnership Ltd

Representation Summary:

There are too many large sites, concentrated in too few areas. This will disproportionately affect existing services and facilities and contradicts the Councils' guiding principle of 'designing and integrating new developments into existing communities'. A mix of different sized sites dispersed more evenly would be more in line with national economic, social and environmental sustainable development objectives.
Proposed allocations in the urban area will lead to loss of employment, retail, community and sports uses.
Housing estimates appear over optimistic in some cases and viability is questionable, particularly for Solihull Town Centre.
Notable that there are no sites in Dorridge.
