My family and I have lived in [Redacted-GDPR]. We originally bought the house on the ABSOLUTE assurance that the green belt and the land [Redacted-GDPR] would NOT be built on.
Our road is already a 'rat run' for Mellish Road, so an additional 1000+ vehicles would make it considerably harder even to exit the drive. Green belt land is being eaten up, when brown belt land is readily available. If passed, there would be no discernable space between Walsall & Aldridge. The same has happened to Pelsall and Rushall, both small villages now just clogged with traffic. I have yet to see any new development act on its promises to provide the infrastructure to accompany the housing. The nearest secondary school is already over subscribed (I am a former governor).
I am completely horrified at the thought of loosing the field [Redacted-GDPR]. Currently occupied by sheep and the occasional horse; not lego land housing and trampolines. I absolutely object to this development. The arboretum is walsall's greatest asset. The noise and traffic pollution from the proposed plan would impact on the children's playground area.
As previously states, my family came to [Redacted-GDPR] having been completely assured that any proposal for building [Redacted-GDPR] would never be granted.
