Black country Planted WOH2744TNA WEC Smestoe Valley Wolverhampton

I am writing to join others in disbelief that the above land is being considered for house building. It is a beautiful area, full of wildlife and history which has literally been a lifeline for people in this are over the past difficult months. It is accessible by foot from many places in Wolverhampton and is well used.
There appears to be a lot of house building going on in the city ......there would appear to be plenty of locations which could be used . My understanding the building plan is for luxury homes ...definitely not a priority...and I simply don't believe ( or believe that you believe) and will ever be designated as social housing.
This appears to be yet another plan to make a vast amount of money for property developers . I guarantee none of them live near the WEC or use it for leisure and to improve their physical and mental well being . If this site is lost it will be a tragedy for many ordinary people a triumph for the greedy and will increase the cynicism felt by many towards policitians and local councils . I appreciate you have a hard job to do and hard choices to make but the WEC is far too valuable a site to be lost to
greed.
