Use of greenbelt sites in this proposal, especially in the Alridge-Brownhills area.

Nearly 8000 homes in this area alone under 'strategic locations' is unacceptable. This feels like a dart board approach has been taken with the thrower going for 'double tops' hitting this area.

Defining 'new' greenbelt in return is a fallacy. Greenbelt is a mechanism designed to stop urban sprawl and should only be used in exceptional circumstances. National planning policy makes it absolutely clear that brownfield development must come first.
