DUH206, 207 AND 209 Worcester Lane Sites

Dudley Council.
I would like to raise an objection to the proposed development of 115 houses on Worcester Lane within the current green belt.
This pandemic has highlighted green spaces as so important to people's well-being.
Surely there are far more suitable brownfield sites that can be developed first.
I feel that not only will this adversely affect the existing neighbourhood but will be a catalyst to the loss of further green belt.
There are also already localised flooding issues on the main road towards the end of this proposed development during heavy downpours - will further hardstanding make this situation worse.
