Question 99d - Do you think that the standards should be different for brownfield and greenfield sites? Yes/No; If yes, please explain how and why

Representation ID: 2891

Received: 08/09/2017

Respondent: St Philips

Representation Summary:

Viability is often a challenge in respect of accessibility and space standards and it may be sensible to set different standards for brownfield and greenfield sites, given their different contexts. Whatever standards are introduced into the new Core Strategy should be rigorously tested and introduced with an element of flexibility as it could potentially lead to viability issues and threaten the delivery of residential sites.

Representation ID: 2896

Received: 08/09/2017

Respondent: St Philips

Representation Summary:

Green Belt sites will need to be allocated for residential development through the Core Strategy Review to accommodate the unmet housing need within the Black Country and consequently St Philips suggests that there is a new Core Strategy policy which deals directly with this matter, in which specific sites within the Green Belt are allocated for residential development. St Philips wishes that the Black Country Authorities consider the identified land at Aldridge one such potential allocation.
