Black Country Core Strategy Issue and Option Report

Representation ID: 3186

Received: 14/12/2017

Respondent: CJZ Design Limited

Agent: SLR Consulting

Representation Summary:

SLR would support the extension of the existing employment areas on the urban fringe into the Green Belt. Such extensions should be duly considered within any forthcoming comprehensive Green Belt Review.

Notwithstanding, concentrating employment in the urban area should be considered preferable to housing, as housing is more easily developed in urban or edge of urban areas which are more responsive to such uses in terms of transport links and services. This is especially true for existing employment sites if they have subsequently become functional and demand necessitates their retention.
