Wednesday 1st December
There is a planning application proposed at 299A Alcester Road South Kings Heath, for construction of a 3 storey building (comprising a ground floor retail unit, with 5 residential units above), parking area and landscaping.
A number of residents have contacted myself, Cllr Neville Summerfield and Lesley Sutton, Conservative Candidate, expressing concern about a number of issues in connection with the proposals.
The proposed application will increase further problems with parking within the area. Currently there are already problems with parking on the junction of Alcester Road South and Wynfield Gardens.
There were Tree Preservation Order placed in the land adjoining 2 Wynfield Gardens, Kings Heath, which became effective as of the 11th September 2009. A letter was sent out (Reference Number: PM/CONS/RW/MB/TBO 1318) informing residents nearby of the Tree Preservation Order. What is happening to these trees ?
The design of the proposed building does not blend in with the design of the surrounding buildings as the planning application is for three stories, the rest of the residential buildings are two stories.
In the houses next to the proposed building they will have south facing windows, which would look straight into the gardens and houses, thus invading the privacy.
