Concerned that South Staffordshire is unnecessarily and inappropriately proposing development in the Green Belt and greenfield sites well in excess of the need of its own residents and migration.
South Staffordshire is apparently providing 11190 homes within the plan, which is 3,093 dwellings in excess of both South Staffordshire's own needs and its 4,000 dwelling provision for the GBBCHMA. This would be 75% over South Staffordshire's calculation of its own housing need. The plan seriously underestimates windfalls and does not justify relying on only 1,200 dwellings from Linthouse Lane in the plan period against a minimum of 1976 dwellings on the site.
