Black Country Core Strategy Issue and Option Report
Representation ID: 1558
Received: 05/09/2017
Respondent: Mrs Becky Shingler
As residents of Halesowen, my family and I strongly object to the proposals made in the Black Country Core Strategy. Development of residential (22,000) and industrial property on and near to green belt land is outrageous, especially when so much 'brown' land is available due to the industrial heritage of the Black Country.
It seems the Black Country Core Strategy is ill thought out. How can it be cheaper to put in all the infrastructure needed to support such growth on Green Belt, as compared to the clean-up of brown sites for development which already have that surrounding infrastructure?
My family and I would like to see a proper cost benefit analysis done giving consideration to the above.
If allowed to go ahead thoughtlessly, our beautiful country side (Clent Hills, Illey, etc) and its nature will be lost forever - an ecology disaster.
I look forward to hearing your response to this objection detailing just what can be done to avert this terrible loss to future generations.
