Representation Summary:

(WAH236, WAH 238, WAH240)
My objection is to the use of greenbelt land for the housing proposal. Green belt is there to prevent urban sprawl and to protect our village's (Pelsall's) identity. Have you exhausted all other avenues?? I.E brownfield land & regeneration of derelict sites. Also the proposed building of a further 1343 homes either side of our village would add massive pressure to the local infrastructure, creating problems for traffic generation, highways safety, pressure on schools, community facilities and healthcare and emergency services. The roads around Pelsall especially near schools are already a nightmare.
