Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation
Representation ID: 7569

Respondent: Ms Rebecca Hess
We strongly object to the possible inclusion of land behind 114-118 Widney Manor Road. This land clearly does contribute to openness of the Green Belt and there are important reasons behind the aesthetic to preserve it: there are plants and wildlife that will be lost if we do not protect this. One of the most valuable and unique characteristics of Solihull as a suburb is that there is greenbelt so near to the centre of town where bats, slow-worms, badgers and deer reside. Damaging this ecosystem would set a very dangerous precedent, as previously agreed by the Council.
