Representation ID: 10954

Respondent: Mr John Pitt

Representation Summary:

The Black Country area and its people created a large area of wealth of this country in late nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Our ancestors would now marvel at the regeneration of the area. They played their part in history. No doubt they would love to think future generations would enjoy what they could never imagine or not even aspire to. Building on Greenbelt? (because we must create affordable housing, I don't think so, building houses of the executive type doesn't address this problem) In any case what ever the proposals building on this greenbelt is not on,. People are intelligent enough to realise that less profit is to be made by developing Brownfield sites. The overall reasons for developing greenbelt areas are repeated time and again and are well documented. The added increase in the volume of traffic and the impact on the local wild life that lives on this land would be catastrophic. We have has nightly visiting us for thirty five years, their set is very close to this area of development. All these objections are reasons for NOT developing on this site.
