I would like to raise these objections on viewing the planning proposals on the above project.
we are well acquainted with it's usage of traffic access and drainage problems with reference to sewerage and storm drainage all of these are at full capacity as at present.
The builder had great difficulty in gaining the license for the pumping station from Seven Trent water authority and it was sanctioned on the understanding it was fully loaded and could not be added too. When you build houses on the field opposite to where we live it will raise drainage problems.

We are objecting to the usage of valuable farming land for growing crops to build housing when other brown field site are available.

The volume of traffic on Stonnall Rd and Lazyhill is- at a very high volume and speeds limit of 30 miles per hour are total ignored therefore it is beyond comprehension for the safety for everyone. Increasing traffic will only make it worse.

Medical services are already limited.
The lack of shopping facilities and parking at Lazyhill and in Aldridge make daily life difficulty. I understand Education could be a problem as well.
No playing areas or facilities for children are near Stonnall Road only in Aldridge or Greenwod Rd less
