Draft Black Country Plan

Representation ID: 11468

Received: 04/10/2021

Respondent: Ikin Family Trust

Representation Summary:

Birch Lane, Aldridge Quarry (MP1) forms part of the land that is held upon trust by the estate of
the late Sam Ikin Sr. We realise that Walsall District is one of the only areas referred to in the plan that has winnable primary sand and gravel resources. As the landowners, we are keen to serve the
area with the required minerals thus helping Walsall contribute to the annual production targets
set out in the Black Country Core Strategy Plan. The former Birch lane Quarry (MP1) and the surrounding area does have winnable sand and gravel reserves available.
