With regard to site 9, community facilities that should be built at the new school include:
Sports facilities for local classes and teams to use, youth centre.
Current infrastructure - roads, schools, Drs surgeries, hospitals etc can't cope now, but appreciate that new housing is needed.
The school and its needs both current and future need to be paramount. The site is small so only build things for which there is likely to be a need. E.g. there are at least 2 day nurseries already in Knowle and Dorridge and 1 on Blythe Valley Park.

With regard to site 9, community facilities that should be built at the new school include:
Swimming pool, 4G floodlit pitch, multiple sports hall, cricket net facilities.
I believe the school does not currently offer facilities that are up to date and suitable for the community to use. With the addition of these facilities the school would be able to offer the community meaningful facilities that could be used to promote a healthy lifestyle to all in a time in which health and obesity problems are such a wide concern and provide lifelong learning and healthy lifestyles to all.

Regarding Balsall Common, the bypass is not required. There is a lack of car parking spaces in and around the village. The GP surgery is at capacity. There is no room for expansion of surrounding roads to cope with additional traffic.

In relation to Site 1.

Loss of open space for recreation.
Lack of trust in volunteers to deliver infrastructure commitments.
Concerns about access to site and traffic and road safety implications. Unreasonable to get a road link via Barratts Lane or Meeting House Lane due to narrow sections.
Possible access at or near 111 MHL is unreasonable. Need adequate pedestrian pathways.
Bypass needs to connect from Evesons Fuels to Berkswell Station.
Development could not commence until HS2 works were completed. Otherwise impact of heavy HGVs in the area.
Need for new primary school and shops. Pressure on secondary school places.

In relation to Site 1 Objection.

Lack of parking in village. Hallmeadow Road used for Berkswell Station and medical centre.
Oversubscribed doctors surgery.
Will increase traffic and congestion. Local roads unsuitable for expansion. Routes to exit the village to the east are restricted by low bridge at Station Road and narrow bridge on Lavender Hall Lane.
Balsall Street East, to west of village, cannot cope with further traffic.
Only 6% of commuters from Balsall Common use public transport.
Bypass is really an access road to 900 proposed houses.

Concerned about parking at Dorridge station.
Parking restrictions put in place have only moved vehicles further away; not solved chronic shortage of parking facilities.
Any development in Knowle/Dorridge will increase pressure on station parking and this needs to be taken into account.

Phasing of the 3 sites in Balsall Common will take place in years 1 - 5 at the same time as HS2 and Riddings Hill. This will see a strain on the settlement in terms of already overstretched infrastructure and facilities e.g. primary school. It contravenes SMBC's stated intent to "manage the growth."
The necessary infrastructure to support any significant expansion must be identified and planned for alongside any development.
