Respondent: Kinver Parish Council

In general, we welcome the Local Plan, which sets out a planning framework for the entire Black Country. We support most of the policies relevant to rural areas such as Kinver and the edge of the Black Country, but do have reservations about some of the proposed allocations and potential policy implications in the wider area. Our concerns are set out in this letter.

As the neighbourhood plan qualifying body for Kinver Parish Council, we have embarked on the preparation of a neighbourhood plan. There is clearly a requirement for the local planning authority and neighbourhood plan body
to work in close liaison. The comments contained in this representation have been prepared against that context.
