Representation Summary:

The housing numbers in south staffordshire and the uplift of 4,000 to meet needs of the greater Birmingham housing market is not justified or tested. I question the figures and with regard to SA3 I question the need to release this land for development of housing.
The west midlands features in the top 10 regions with the most empty houses approx 22,120 properties. These should be brought online along with empty retail properties. All brownfield sites must be used first.
SA3 is valuable arable land we will need in the future.
High congestion on bordering B roads.
