Adverse impacts of developing Site 4 significantly outweigh benefits of proximity to station, there are other sites in Solihull of lower grade Green Belt with lesser impacts and in more sustainable locations.
Significant loss of sports fields, contrary to Government policy. Number of pitches would reduce from nine to two.
Loss of character/accessibility which makes Dickens Heath Village attractive and beyond natural boundaries. Significant adverse impact on ecology, with four Local Wildlife sites, affecting ecological connectivity. Will exacerbate existing flooding problems. Impact on the high sensitivity landscape character. Ancient woodland/hedgerows restricts development.
LOcal school already oversubscribed/no room for expansion.
