Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 8127

Received: 14/03/2019

Respondent: Gill Corns

Representation Summary:

Alternative sites in the "gap" between Knowle & Solihull would be preferable to both the major proposed sites to the north and south of Knowle centre. Access to transport links, the M42 and employment areas would be far superior and have a less damaging, effect upon transport, congestion, parking & the quality of life for existing residents in Knowle & Dorridge. For example, the "Red" site ref 207 (land bounded by Browns Lane, Smiths Lane & Widney Manor Road) would be more suitable than the land south of Knowle thus avoiding unnecessary intrusion into the Green belt.
