Representation Summary:

I object to the building of 14 houses on the WEC, Smestow Valley, Wolverhampton.
I was born, grew up and worked all my working life in Tettenhall, and still have many family members and friends in the area who love and use the Nature Reserve.
At a time when biodiversity and re-wilding is at the forefront of the minds of the people on our planet Wolverhampton seem to be set on building on their local nature reserve, a stunning ‘conserved’ green corridor along the Smestow Brook. Why?
Plans to build 14 homes in the middle of the nature reserve will restrict the biodiversity to be found there. Future generations should be able to enjoy this special site knowing that their
Council did not allow the destruction of it.
Please do not allow this amazing reserve to be spoiled
