Draft Black Country Plan

Representation ID: 16167

Received: 30/09/2021

Respondent: Ms Anita Wheeler

Representation Summary:

I am objecting to the proposed development at the above sight for the following reasons:-

1. It is an emergency landing strip/flight path and, therefore, cannot be built on.

2. There is an underground overflow gravity water pipe running parallel with Doe Bank Lane. This comes off the reservoir on top of Barr Beacon and runs into Kingstanding for when (as it has done in the past) Kingstanding runs dry.

3. It contravenes Government proposals to tackle climate change and plant trees.

4. The area contains many species of wildlife including 11 red listed bird species, barn owls and bats.

5. Drain on local services and amenities including Doctors, schools etc where there is not enough room already.

6. This is a Conservation Area.
