Campaigners face nervous wait on whether Walsall greenbelt land will be used for houses
Campaigners face a continued nervous wait to find out which green belt land in Walsall could be lost to make way for large housing developments.
Planning reforms currently being overseen by the Government have caused delays to the development of the Walsall Borough Local Plan or a timetable of when key actions, such as public consultations, will take place.
Walsall is looking to develop its own proposals for how it intends to deliver much-needed new homes and employment space in the borough in the coming years.
Originally, the council, along with Wolverhampton, Sandwell and Dudley, was working together on the Black Country Plan to deliver the 76,000 new homes in the region by 2039, 8,000 of which was earmarked for the green belt.
