Bellway support the overall approach to meeting South Staffordshire’s housing needs through the provision of a minimum 4,881 dwellings plus a contribution of 4,000 dwellings towards meeting the Great Birmingham Housing Market Area shortfall through to 2038. However, it is considered the settlement hierarchy needs to be amended. Given Wombourne’s unique sustainability credentials it should remain a Tier 1 settlement and Policy DS3 amended.

The attached provides further supporting justification to support this response to Question 5. This includes a proposed amendment to Policy DS3.
