Draft Black Country Plan

Representation ID: 11085

Received: 11/09/2021

Respondent: Ms Dawn Webster

Representation Summary:

I support the Councils council's continued protection of countryside at Lapal, Illey, Coombeswood, Uffmore. Hayley Green. Lutley and Foxcote, following a formal review of the Green Belt.

The countryside, protect by Green Belt designation, is rich in history and have never been more important to the mental and physical wellbeing of individuals and the community as a whole.

The whole of this area, including that within Dudley Borough, is of regional Importance as an amenity asset for the welfare of, and enjoyment by, a larger population. It would be so simple to seriously damage the area with inappropriate developments and associated infrastructure. To build on any Green Belt land when these are brownfield sites available, would be down to pure greed and selfishness and a lack of thinking in regards to the big picture. Maintaining the countryside for future generations and for good of the populations is of utmost importance and should be a key driver for the local authority.

Please acknowledge receipt of this email and note my support for the Councils continued protection of the Countryside
