SLR agrees with the key issues identified within Section 3 of the Core Strategy Issues and Options Report. SLR would, however, suggest that weighting needs to be applied to those key issues which are considered to be more pressing in terms of growth and investment for the Black Country Core Strategy area. Indeed, SLR would suggest that the completion of the Greater Birmingham and Black Country Housing Market Area (HMA) Strategic Growth Study is a key priority which would subsequently likely require a comprehensive review of both housing needs within the HMA and for the completion of a comprehensive Green Belt Review in collaboration with adjoining local authorities.
