Draft Local Plan Review
01 Balsall Common - Barratt's Farm
Representation ID: 2793
Received: 17/02/2017
Respondent: Burton Green Parish Council
concerned with the development at Barratts Farm. We note that this development covers more hectares, 57, than any other development in Solihull and stretches from Waste Lane to Station Avenue. As well as impacting severely on the landscape, it affects the Greenway which is a treasured amenity, not only for residents in Burton Green, Berkswell and Kenilworth, but for those further afield. Walkers and cyclists will now have to contend with HS2 on one side and a housing estate of 800 houses on the other. The sense of well-being which the Greenway brings will be further tarnished by this development.
I am chair of the Burton Green Parish Council and I am sending our response to the Solihull Local Plan. I would appreciate if you confirmed that our response has been delivered. Also when the Inspector's proceedings begin, we would like to be represented there when it looks at the developments in Berkswell and Balsall Common, especially when the transport infrastructure is discussed.

doubt whether the road infrastructure will cope with the cumulative impact of housing developments. congestion will be considerable, undermining the village status.
consider that the major road to the A452 should be identified as a matter of urgency and that the difficulties in Hob Lane and Waste Lane should be resolved.

The phasing of any development in Balsall Common must recognise the impact and disruption by HS2 and no housing development should take place at the same time as the HS2 construction

We applaud the vision of the Council in its approach to the Green Belt and we fully support the statement in the Local Plan that Solihull will continue to be Urbs in Rure, "without compromising the quality of its environment, protecting the integrity of the Green Belt and retaining the strategic gap between the Birmingham conurbation and Coventry."

Q14. Do you agree that we are planning to build the right number of new homes? If not why not, and how many do you think we should be planning to build?

this Council believes that the number of houses in these combined proposals is excessive and impacts too severely on Burton Green.
In total, 1,970 houses are proposed to be built in a supposedly rural area and on green belt.
