Draft Black Country Plan

Representation ID: 17138

Received: 10/10/2021

Respondent: Mrs Emma Gobourn

Representation Summary:

(Pennwood)

-188 figure 4 Housing key diagram- I wish you to receive my objection to proposed housing development at land off Viewfield Crescent, Sedgley, Dudley. DUH210 draft policies map. This land is important for nature conservation with wildlife living there. It is a public amenity and green space with rights of way and to build on it would be visual pollution in Cotwall End Valley- visible from many places. Access to the site is not suitable either- especially in ice/snow conditions, Viewfield Crescent and Moden Hill are impossible. (Site ID 147+38 from call for sites)

-I also wish to object to the proposed housing at Pennwood and near Colton Hills school (Sites 521 and 283 from call to sites). These sites form an important green wedge between Dudley and Wolverhampton and allow recreation and conservation (as well as helping air quality on the edge of the city)
