I am writing to register my objection to 14 houses being built on greenfield land namely a Smethstow nature reserve in Wolverhampton.
We have too few green spaces in Wolverhampton where wildlife and plants can thrive and people can enjoy walking away from traffic.
Wolverhampton has plenty of brownfield sites that would benefit local areas by being developed. For instance the old eye hospital on Compton road and the site of Strikers Bowling Club next to the council recycling site on Showell Rd to name just 2. Both these sites are eyesores and have become dumping grounds for rubbish.
I thought Andy Street said that his aim was to work with all councils in the West Midlands to develop brownfield sites and avoid developing any more greenfield sites
