“ABCA support the preferred spatial housing Option G, and the Infrastructure Delivery Plan, subject to:
- ensuring that sites selected for development are carefully located and planned to avoid areas of environmental sensitivity and green belt harm, and minimise impacts on infrastructure;
- ensuring that any urban extensions provide all necessary local shops, community facilities and primary school places on-site and that the needs of smaller sites on the South Staffordshire boundary can be met without putting additional pressure on infrastructure in neighbouring authorities.”
