With regards to the Sustainability Appraisal:
Objective 1: mitigation possible through use of low carbon technologies, tree planting, landscaping, integrated solar panels, EV charging points and avoidance of gas boilers. Potential for solar farm development.
Objective 2: low risk of flooding from rivers, seas, and surface water flooding.
Objective 3: careful layout and design can avoid impact on nearby SSSIs. Review of biodiversity, geodiversity, flora and fauna will be commissioned.
Objective 4: A2 is wholly within the Arden SLA but broad areas and impacts can be mitigated through landscape-led design practices.
Objective 5: New settlement is separated from Grade I Church of St Mary Madalene by intervening development in Tanworth-in-Arden and development is unlikely to significantly impact the setting. Careful buffering around Beaumont Hill Farmhouse can also avoid adverse impact to the setting of this LB.
Objective 7: Sites 510 and 409 are Grade 3 and thus not of highest agricultural quality.
Objective 10: A2 is one of two settlements within sustainable distance to an existing GP surgery. It is also within sustainable distance of existing public greenspaces.
Objective 11: A2 is one of five settlements within a sustainable distance of 2km to a railway station
Objective 12: A2 is one of three settlements partially within sustainable distance to an existing primary school. Site 510 has direct access to Tanworth-in-Arden via Bates Lane, only 600m from Tanworth-in-Arden Primary.
Objective 13: There is little separating A1, A2, C1 and F3 which are all identified to have a minor negative impact on access to employment. A2 does not have existing employment but is close to major employment areas of the Birmingham/Solihull conurbation and Redditch, about 5km and 3km away respectively. The site has good accessibility to the strategic highway network of the M42 (Junction 3) and A435.
