Residents will have received communications regarding two development proposals on land off Tythe Barn Lane and Tilehouse Lane. At this stage they are just proposals but need to be taken seriously because the land forms a site within the Local Development Plan.
The previous Labour Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) first announced in 2018 that Solihull Police Station would close. The current Labour PCC then reconfirmed this intention following his 2021 estates review, and the station set to close sometime at or after autumn 2025.
Councils are required by law to plan for housing or keep a 5- year supply of land with permission to build. Without this, developers can get permission to build including on greenbelt.
Shirley East Councillors, Mark Parker, Annette Mackenzie and Karen Grinsell wish to make you aware of a planning application Ref PL/2023/01965/PPFL received by Solihull Council to demolish the existing property at 32 Solihull Road and replace it with apartments.
