Draft Black Country Plan

Representation ID: 17761

Respondent: Mrs Kathleen Smith

Representation Summary:

I wish to object to the building on Green Belt land especially in Wolverhampton. The amount of Green Belt land in
Wolverhampton is I believe approx. 11% and cannot afford to lose any of this. The benefits of green spaces to the community are well
documented.
The most recent survey regarding the loss of biodiversity (Oct 2021) confirms the devastating effect building on green land
has had to this country. Building on Green Belt will further erode the limited green spaces available in the Black Country. I also feel the
local infrastructures will have difficulty coping with the increase in local populations.
I strongly oppose any loss of Green fields
