Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 7635

Received: 12/03/2019

Respondent: BFNAG

Representation Summary:

Site nos 76 and 212 have not been assessed for housing but, while they are in Green Belt, they are PDL and are near both Hampton and Berkswell stations. They are north of Balsall Common, within easy reach of the motorway network, and near employment opportunities. It could provide a purpose-built new settlement.
Site nos 142, 198 and 233 would be an alternative to Barratt's Farm, providing the possibility of a by-pass to the west of Balsall Common. It is also more accessible to the employment opportunities. It could be developed ahead of the completion of HS2.
