Draft Local Plan Review
Q22. Do you agree with the Policy P21? If not why not, and what alternatives would you suggest?

Generally support the approach to P21. However the policy allows for funds to divert away from areas with development to other areas of the Borough. Support the principle that all funds raised by development should be spent in the area where they are raised 'except in very special circumstances'. This is a proportionate approach for Balsall Common given the scale of development proposed and the infrastructure issues.

Alternative to Frog Lane that could be further investigated are SHELAA refs 135 and 104. These do not have significant negative SA impacts and the Green Belt performs poorly.

The Accessibility Study is flawed. The conclusion that Balsall Comm has medium to high accessibility and therefore suitable for growth is not justified.
The phasing of development in Balsall Common needs to be considered after HS2 construction. It would be wilfully negligent of the Council to fail to manage the growth by phasing new housing in Balsall Common before 2026.
