Draft Black Country Plan

Representation ID: 11185

Received: 25/09/2021

Respondent: Mr Kris Bolton

Representation Summary:

While the historic under-delivery needs to be addressed, I object to the consideration and use of green belt land when sufficient brown field sites could be made available. The loss of green belt effects the lives of everyone within their radius and over a larger radius in terms of pollution and loss of biodiversity. Further, the use of green belt sites contradicts the Government plans for the protection and increased biodiversity discussed in the 'Integrated Review of Security, Defence, Development and Foreign Policy', in addition to Government climate change pledges.
