Do not disagree in principle, but issues with execution and lack of transparency.
The SA is part of the refinement process, but some sites are still assessed as clusters and not given a full SA, therefore disregard for site specifics.
Need further evidence of how the overall assessment has been arrived at. The selection process is subjective and confused. Stratford-upon-Avon use a more refined approach.
Assessment methodology is illogical, overly subjective and inconsistent. The assessment framework does not allow for constraints to be weighted differently (e.g hard and constraints). The process does not allow for mitigation of soft constraints.
Cerda Planning has been instructed by Mr J. Allen of Grove Farm, Jacobean Lane, Knowle to prepare representations to the Draft Local Plan Supplementary Consultation, Reviewing the Plan for Solihull's Future dated January 2019.
These Representations relate to land at Grove Farm, Knowle. For ease of reference this site is known as 'No.5' in the Council's documentation
