Draft Local Plan Review

Representation ID: 478

Received: 29/01/2017

Respondent: Mr Michael Scott

Representation Summary:

I disagree with the amount of growth planned for Balsall Common. It seems disproportionate to many other areas (i.e. Dorridge, Hockley Heath, Tidbury Green etc). I'm also not convinced that enough focus is paid to expanding the mature suburbs and brownfield sites.
Balsall Common will no longer be the aspirational place that you currently pitch it as. Kenilworth Road is already too busy, the high street is too small, schools are over-crowded and we are already subject to increased flight noise and soon, the HS2. The current proposals ruin the greenbelt.
