Representation Summary:

The vision is succinct but not locally relevant and has no spatially specific elements. It seeks to ‘protect and enhance’ the District rather than considering how growth could be accommodated/best used. The strategic objectives are supported, but objective 6 should provide for employment in key locations and recognise sectors beyond advanced manufacturing, including distribution. The Strategic Objectives must also acknowledge Black Country unmet employment needs. WMI is not a threat to infrastructure as it will provide its own infrastructure.
