Pegasus Review of SHELAA
SHELAA has a number of flaws, including:
Local planning policy is irrelevant to SHELAA as plan being reviewed.
751dpa figure is less than in the DLP.
Council should do more than just Call for Sites.
Absolute constraints inappropriate.
Scoring system for housing too generalised.
Concern with suitability criteria, e.g. suitability of location is predetermining the plan.
Availability scoring too conservative.
Number of anomalies in the assessments, e.g. LWS
Densities and build out rates too optimistic.
Windfall allowance too generous.
SHELAA provide evidence that sufficient available land in Solihull to meet significant housing needs.
