Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation
Representation ID: 9999
Received: 15/03/2019
Respondent: Stonewater
Agent: DS Planning
Identified as an employment site in the Solihull local Plan 2013 and a mixed
use site in the SDLP 2016 (housing and employment). Would support a mixed use allocation but recent planning decisions would appear to negate this suggestion.
There is conflict with the employment policy within the SDLP 2016 and the future balance between employment and housing in the Borough. No indication as to where the B1 uses on site would relocate to
This is the response of Stonewater to the supplementary consultation by Solihull
Council on the Solihull Draft Local Plan January 2019. The purpose of the response is
to comment the draft Plan and promote the site at the Firs Maxstoke Lane (west of
Meriden proposed allocation site 10) for inclusion as a housing allocation within the
Plan. The response is by question order.
The original response to the Solihull Draft Local Plan 2016 consultation is also
attached which highlights the reasons why the site should be an allocation within the
Local Plan (Site Ref 137).
