Representation ID: 44819

Received: 11/10/2021

Respondent: The Wildlife Trust for Birmingham and the Black Country

Representation Summary:

SAH069 Beever Road, Great Bridge - WTBBC have concluded that the Site Assessment process should not have selected site:
• Site has been identified as Potential Site of Importance (for nature conservation).
• A Local (wildlife) Site Assessment is required to provide evidence to inform the BCP Site Assessment process. This has not been undertaken and therefore WTBBC object to the allocation on this basis.
• WTBBC understand the allocation is an area of public open space. It is WTBBC’s position that due to the broad range of benefits that these sites provide local communities that no public open space should be allocated for development. Objection on this basis.
