Black Country Core Strategy Issue and Option Report
Representation ID: 2865
Received: 08/09/2017
Respondent: St Philips
Representation Summary:
Most of the spatial objectives are considered by St Philips to remain appropriate, with the exception of spatial objective 3 which aims to "model sustainable communities on redundant employment land in Regeneration Corridors". In line with our responses to question 7, it is not appropriate to rely on brownfield land as a source of future housing sites within the Black Country, and Green Belt land offers the only realistic prospect for bridging the gap between housing need and supply.
