The statement that a Conservation Area Management Plan has been published for each of the Conservation Areas in the district is untrue. There are no CAMPs for the 3 canal Conservation Areas in the district. The only documents on the Council website are the original Conservation Area designation documents for the Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal (1978), the Shropshire Union Canal (1984) and the Stourbridge Canal (undated). The absence of an updated assessment and management plan for the Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal resulted in a failure to properly characterise and defend the Conservation Area against the West Midlands Interchange NSIP.

Welcome updated Conservation Management Plans for Conservation Areas and welcome the Council preparing a locally important list of buildings and structures and consider this best practice.
