Draft Black Country Plan

Representation ID: 13070

Received: 22/09/2021

Respondent: Maria Wiltshire

Representation Summary:

I am writing to object to the proposed development of Site Ref:DUH 211 p371(The Triangle), [respondents location was disclosed].

'The Triangle' currently provides a much needed off-road space where individuals and families can go to walk in a safe environment away from the busy roads which surround this area. The site is also used for growing local produce and shelter for wildlife. It would be a great loss for our local community, as I and most of my neighbours use it on a regular basis.

If planning is approved, the housing would place a greater strain on local infrastructure which is already stretched to the maximum. Would the development include extra amenities such as schooling, health and transportation facilities? I doubt that this would be the case.

I urge the council to reject the proposal and maybe look to other potential abandoned or derelict sites around the borough.

Regards,

Maria Wiltshire.
Very concerned local resident.
