EMERGING CORE STRATEGY
This is what Solihull Council asks you, and on Monday night, Dave Simpson, Head of Sustainable Development, will attend our parish council meeting from 7:30pm to answer your questions:

"We want to hear your views on our ‘Emerging Core Strategy’ which sets out where development such as housing, employment and leisure could take place in Solihull up to 2026, whilst also protecting and improving the local environment.



"The Strategy aims to tackle the key challenges that are facing the borough such as providing more affordable housing, maintaining the attractiveness and economic competitiveness of the borough, reducing inequality - particularly between north Solihull and the rest of the borough, and balancing the need to protect the Green Belt with providing land for necessary new development."

Are you interested?  Either come along to the parish council meeting or send your views direct to Solihull Council.  You have until 10 December 2010 to do so, or you can register your concerns/views with Meriden Parish Council up to 3 January 2011.
