Respondent: Mr Stuart Woodhall

Representation Summary:

No
The site selection process does not follow the NPPF2 sustainability analysis and could be subject to a legal challenge. The council should re-evaluate site 4 in particular using the government approved scorecard process.
The selection focuses on large-scale green belt releases, which goes against government advice that a mix of sites should be selected.
We've already see an increase in flooding in and around Shirley with the proposed plans put new & current properties more at risk of flooding
