Black Country Core Strategy Issue and Option Report
Representation ID: 3168
Received: 14/12/2017
Respondent: CJZ Design Limited
Agent: SLR Consulting
The Economic Development Needs Assessment (EDNA) has been developed for the area during 2016/2017 and it is highlighted that 90-170 ha of land in South Staffordshire (including the proposed West Midlands Interchange) has the potential to contribute towards meeting Black Country needs for employment
land. Notwithstanding, SLR would encourage any future SHMA to duly consider the needs of the EDNA in terms of both retaining existing employment land and ensuring that sufficient housing land is provided to meet the likely increase in population within the HMA as a result of any increase in economic activity.
