Representation Summary:

Core Regeneration Areas
The strategic approach for the growth network is set out within Draft Policy CSP2. We are supportive of this policy, in particular Part 4(a) which states that the Core Regeneration Areas linking the Strategic Centres will provide the principal concentrations of strategic employment areas. These are high quality employment areas that will be safeguarded and enhanced for manufacturing and logistics activity to support the long-term success of the Black Country’s economy. Furthermore, Part 4(c) advises that the Core Regeneration Areas will provide the principal locations for new industrial and logistics development: providing 192 hectares of developable employment land to meet growth needs. As noted above, the Site is located within the Walsall to Wolverhampton Core Regeneration Area and has a development capacity of 11.22 hectares.
