Agree with need to release Green Belt land for housing.
Misconception that Solihull has sufficient brownfield land to recycle.
Housing land assessment is flawed.
Housing should be located close to main conurbation, not increase journey times and congestion through Green Belt.
Areas around Dickens Heath, Tidbury Green, Cheswick Green and Blythe Valley Park are optimal locations.
Large proportion of capacity is located where the housing market is weakest and viability is most challenged; not deliverable.
Failure to adequately consider the capacity of the housing market in Solihull to absorb higher levels of new housebuilding over the plan period.
