Draft Black Country Plan

Representation ID: 17547

Received: 11/10/2021

Respondent: Sport England

Representation Summary:

Further to Sport England's comments on policies CSP2 and CSP3, Sport England recommends reference being added to part 1) of the policy to include sport and recreation uses within the list of appropriate uses, since this is consistent with NPPF Glossary definition of Main town centre uses, and links well the the later part of this paragraph which refers to fostering healthy communities and increasing social interaction and cohesion. An associated amendment to para 8.15 of the justification to add in reference to sports uses in part a) would also be recommended.
