Draft Black Country Plan

Representation ID: 12260

Received: 21/09/2021

Respondent: Ms Denise Hamblett-Price

Representation Summary:

am writing with regard to Corbett Meadow hoping that you will do the right thing for this beautiful & historic space and designate it as a Local Green Space (LGS) in the Black Country Plan (ref Policy DSA4, page 434) and also as an Area of High Historic Landscape Value (ref policy ENV5, page 230).
At a time when environmental issues and a high priority I consider any other plans for this meadow to be not only senseless but almost immoral. This land was given to the people of Stourbridge and having already witnessed the reckless sale of the old Corbett Hospital for housing development I feel that doing the same for this meadow would be an act of violation to our local urban areas and all the wildlife that exists within it.
Please don't sell this land for a quick profit but invest in the long term future and the benefits that this green space can give us all.
Please do the right thing and find alternative brown sites for redevelopment!
