We do not agree to use any of the green belt for building purposes. There is not enough
countryside around us as it is without making the spaces Smaller. The world is telling us to
save our planet yet this proposal will get rid of habitat for wildlife and fauna but put many
more cars around with emissions in the atmosphere.
Countryside is so important for so many reasons and particularly for mental health. We do
not know all these sites but I know well the Aldridge Road site and the one at lindrosa
streetly and Pelsall and Brownhills. Houses there will do nothing for the landscape
The Aldridge Road has always given us great pleasure and to many others when leaving the
city of Birmingham and suddenly seeing the fields from the Sutton Oak Road. The houses
there will just join us up within Brum and no gap in between. We bought our homes in
Streetly to get away from city life and have countryside around but not too rural to have no
bus services, hospital, and schools near for our children. Can you imagine 960 houses with
roughly 2000 cars all trying with the very busy traffic already in Streetly to get off the estate
in the mornings etc. Bedlam!!!
Lots of people I have spoken to have not had any information at all of this subject or only
just had them with 3 days to go to the 11th of October this is not good enough when it will
effect so many people and not for the good.
I can understand it must be difficult to come up with more houses but the area is crowded
already and it does not need for the area to get any larger.
We do realise that people are hardly ever listened to. The opinions of the minions are not
taken into too much account and it is usually business and money that will prevail the yay
or nay. But we do have to stand up and be counted.
