My personal recommendation after consultation with the CPRE is that you would consider to halve the proposed housing numbers for both sites BL1 site 4 and site BL2 site 12. which would preserve some much needed space and green belt. and the excess housing numbers should be re considered for the area east of the borough near the HS2 interchange which would benefit from cutting excessive commuting across the borough and pollution.

Regarding the housing proposals and numbers for the South Shirley Area. While i am pleased to see site 11(668) is in progress and is suitable for the location i still have grave concerns over the size of area and excessive loss of greenbelt regarding site 12((BL2) and site 4 (BL1) which are clearly not Brownfield sites as promised by Council MPs and also mentioned in the NPPF which is too great for space regarding coalition of areas south Shirley Dickins Heath and Cheswick Green. In its current Draft proposal i will object to because of the excessive housing numbers for sites 12 BL2 and sites 4 BL1 which if go ahead will cause serious over crowding and local infrastructure problems for the south shirley area and will increase pollution and a great loss of environmental wildlife. Added to this we are too close to the border draft plans of Bromsgrove and Worcester who are also planning large scale allocations near the area proposed.

Following a discussion with the CPRE and NPPF I would ask you to re consider.
