Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 8287

Received: 14/03/2019

Respondent: Mr Andrew Burrow

Representation Summary:

The methodology does not reflect the Harm to the greenbelt because it both fails to look at the cumulative impact of removing individual sites which were only assessed for their individual contribution to the purposes of the greenbelt and in some cases even ignores the Atkins greenbelt report. It also makes up public transport accessibility scores that ignore the Council's own Solihull Connect report. It also fails to take into account the relative public amenity benefits of sites in terms of their public accessibility and contribution to well being.
