Respondent: Lower Penn Parish Council

Strategic objective 1 – Compensatory Green Belt will not ameliorate loss and there are not exceptional circumstances to release it
Strategic objective 2 – 4,000 houses for the Black Country and urban extensions should be removed and reviewed following the adoption of the Black Country Plan.
Strategic objectives 3-5 – should only relate to housing needs in South Staffordshire, not the Black Country
Strategic objective 12 – is wholly inadequate, this objective should be much higher up in the plan. As well as mitigation of sites, the overall approach to development location should reduce climate change emissions and accepting large numbers of housing from the Black Country undermines this goal. South Staffordshire has committed to a climate emergency but has not addressed these issues in its planning framework.
