Representation Summary:

Whilst the plan suggests that 4,000 units are required to support the growth of Birmingham and the Black Country, only 2,958 dwellings of these are allocated for development adjacent to the conurbation. 4000 dwellings to the shortfall from the conurbation is not enough.

In increasing this number and seeking additional sites to meet the additional requirement, it is our view that the most logical location to allocate these sites is through the removal of additional sites from the Green Belt adjacent to the Black Country to ensure it is provided in the right location to support the growth of the conurbation.
