Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation
Question 41 - Affordable Housing calculation
Representation ID: 9597
Received: 15/03/2019
Respondent: Berkswell Parish Council
Residents' interest is primarily smaller homes to buy so that the children of Balsall Common residents can buy a property in Balsall Common. The affordable housing definition does not help this group and that is disappointing
Support higher proportion of shared ownership/Starter/discounted homes.
Plan should make specific reference to providing land on large developments for alms houses by Berkswell Charities.
See details in attached letter
Berkswell Parish Council considers that the issues are important and worthy of deep consideration with an honest attempt by SMBC to conduct a suitable and sufficient review of the draft plan proposals.

Question 39 - Red Sites
Representation ID: 10446
Received: 15/03/2019
Respondent: Berkswell Parish Council
Sites 76/212, coupled with brownfield Sites 31/216 should be considered for potential new settlement. A substantial proportion, after allowing for HS2, potentially available for housing, sufficient for new settlement in line with Government's garden villages and Dickens Heath.
Land available that is not in narrowest part of green belt, close to employment area around Airport/NEC and within easy reach of Sprint network/Hampton rail station.
Concerned that no consideration given to this option to date.
