Bushbury Plan

I have several concerns regarding this proposed plan.

1. This would have a major impact on the local woodland and wildlife within that woodland. Even though the site is currently farm land it is surrounded by woodland and is the habitat of Buzzards and other woodland animals. This will undoubtable affect their habitat and possibly drive them away.

2. There are several mature trees within the proposed area and these need to be protected.

3. The size of the proposed site will have a major impact on the local infrastructure, roads. schools and medical facilities. These are already under immense pressure due to numbers. The proposed school, if this went ahead would do little to alleviate this.

4. The proposed site is currently a popular area for leisure activities including walking and bird watching and this would be affected by the proposed size of the site.

5. Lastly and most importantly this is clearly green belt and should surely be a last resort, brownfield land must be the priority in these cases, reuse land and stay away from land that is clearly a benefit as it is to the local community. Bushbury is not an affluent area and any country side in this area is important to the well being of the local community
