Full text:

I disagree with this policy as again Green Belt land is being destroyed and not persevered to relocate Bickenhill Waste Disposal facility to make room for the HS2. In your policy you have already stated that the lower part of Damson lane floods significantly during rainfall events. I do not see how the Damson Wood area is suitable for this type of facility when the area is known to flood. This would mean more financial support would be needed to fund this movement of the waste facility. This policy is also impacting local residents such as the Sports Division because you are looking to relocate them. It will also be impacting Park farm house and Packington Hall and Park these are historical land sites that not only are enjoyed by local residents but visitors these should not be disrupted.
