Another sizeable proposal within the 330+ submissions in the councils ‘call for sites’ is land we know as Fulford Green. This has been submitted before and was not included in the now withdrawn local plan. Then, proposal looked for 1800+ homes. It seems the developers. Summix, are now looking for 850 homes and press reports have revealed they have submitted proposals to Solihull Council. These have yet to be validated, therefore there is no formal application just yet.
Proposal Details: CFS/24/132 in the ‘call for sites’ can be found via this link: Local Plan Call for Sites 2024 Public
As ward members we have met with Summix on a few occasions and they have updated us as to their aims. They are aware of our concerns for this area, which has seen lots of development in recent years. They have a dedicated website for this site: https://summix.com/projects/land-south-of-norton-lane?p=projects/fulford-green
