Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation
Representation ID: 6838
Received: 25/02/2019
Respondent: Mrs Wendy Wilson
Representation Summary:
An holistic perspective has not been taken to site allocations across the borough. Whilst acknowledging that Balsall Common was identified by SMBC as a settlement suitable for significant expansion, to increase the housing units from circa 3900 to around 5700 is totally disproportionate.
Overall level of growth in settlement is excessive and much greater than proposed elsewhere, with reduction in numbers for Dickens Heath/Shirley and no allocations in Dorridge. Brownfield sites put forward as alternatives to avoid development of greenfield land, not as additional sites. Proposals will impact on air quality and health.
