Representation Summary:

I'm writing to object to the proposal to build houses on the sites of Brandhall Golf Course and Parsons Hill Park.
This area is deprived of green spaces which have been shown to be beneficial for supporting mental health and reducing rates of crime and anti-social behaviour as well as being essential for the environment and keeping levels of urban pollution down.
Its seems short sighted to build on one of the few remaining green spaces in this area when there are brown-field sites which can be reclaimed and houses standing empty which could be compulsorily purchased.
