Representation Summary:

I object to the use of greenbelt land to build 15000 homes Arden Cross development. This will result in the loss of valuable wildlife habitat and corridor between Catherine De Barnes and Chelmsley Wood. This will also impact on climate change removing carbon absorbing trees and vegetation. I also object to use of greenbelt to build homes beyond the budget of local people. Why cannot brownfield sites be used. I would like the Arden cross development removed totally and improved housing provided on Chelmsley wood.

Change suggested by respondent:

Use of brownfield sites within chelmsley wood
