Representation ID: 17128

Received: 11/10/2021

Respondent: Mrs Jane Grimmett

Representation Summary:

The Aldridge Road/ Queslett Road/ Doe BankLane Development - WAH235

Main point of objection
- Are this number of homes really required ? - I feel the government target needs to be challenged by the Black Country
- Tory Housing Policy - new proposals were announced at the Tory party conference by Gove - Have these been factored in?
-IE - Brownfield sites & Land banks to be used prior to green spaces being considered.
- Why is the number of homes being suggested in Walsall greater than across - Dudley, Sandwell & Wolverhampton? Should everyone not taking their fair share?
- Infrastructure - Schools, Doctors, Traffic - I appreciate that funding would be sought to improve these, but GP's Teachers etc. are difficult to recruit.
- The net density of site WAH235 is higher than most other developments - (45dph) why is this?
- The site is completed would mean that 2 wards would be joined. Becoming an Urban Spawl .
