Save the Green Belt surrounding villages in North Worcestershire


Save the Green Belt surrounding villages in North Worcestershire
The Issue
Wyre Forest District Council has stated the aim of it's Local Plan Review is to "make sure the right development happens in the right places". However the planning maps show a disproportionate and aggressive housing development that will mean that the villages of Cookley, Hurcott and Stone will be joined onto the nearby town of Kidderminster. There is a need for housing development, shared throughout the Wyre Forest district, but providing that need by destroying green belt and annexing villages to the town of Kidderminster, is not a sustainable or proportionate way to do this. North Worcestershire is a green and pleasant landscape, with a mix of towns and villages. Please sign this petition to help persuade Wyre Forest District Council to preserve green belt and the way of life of villages in North Worcestershire.
