Representation Summary:

SAH225 - Charlemont Community Centre

The proposal for this site is for one house, and that will have no impact on the housing stock while opening up the possibility of developers encroaching on the neighbouring open space. This proposal should therefore be rejected and the Council should instead look for ways to make use of the building as a community centre. This could be either through Sandwell Council itself, or inviting community groups to make use of it. The area is also prone to flooding and any building work would likely exacerbate this, and there is vacant lot close by.
