A lot of Green Belt has already been sacrificed in Wombourne & is now classed as 'Safeguarded Land', however, the Billy Buns Lane sites are still designated as Green Belt & should remain so. I understand an assessment carried out by South Staffs into development at Billy Buns Lane found there would be a potentially major negative impact resulting in Green Belt harm.

Strategic objective 2 is laudable, but at the present time the unmet development needs of the GBBCHMA are unknown and no agreement has been reached with the constituent authorities. As such the Duty to Cooperate remains incomplete whilst the allowance of 4,000 houses with SSDC's area as a proportionate response to the unmet need, remains uncertain.

Until agreement can be reached between the constituent authorities on the apportionment of the unmet need, the SSDC Local Plan Review cannot achieve Strategic objective 2.

The two strategic objectives 1 and 2 are conflicting in nature and provide no clear criteria on the balance between housing/community/social shortage need and the proposed developments.

Strategic Objective 1 should provide clarity that meeting present and future growth requirements will necessitate Green Belt land releases.
Strategic Objective 2 could be strengthened to refer to meeting the needs of both existing and new residents.
