@zarahsultana 9. Planning and development: Pressure for new housing and employment land, Green Belt arguments, extra strain on schools, roads and health services. HMO concentration in several South wards led to an Article 4 direction limiting conversions.
@zarahsultana 8. Roads and environment: Pothole log 588. Severe repairs still miss the 5-day target; average repair time 12 days. Fly-tipping up: 7,880 incidents in 2025/26 (from 7,188).
@zarahsultana 5. Benefits / disability: Coventry South: 6,964 people on PIP (April 2026). New PIP award rate 39.7% vs 44.3% nationally. Psychiatric conditions make up 41.7% of the local PIP caseload.
