To the Panel Secretary
WMRSS Phase 2 Revision
c/o Government Office
for the West Midlands
My comments are the draft Phase 2 Revision are as follows.
I fundamentally question the phasing of the WMRSS Revisions, and, in particular, the separation of major regional development issues (ie Phase 2) and major environmental issues, including flood risk (ie in Phase 3).
I suggest that is a basic miscomprehension of land economy and management underlies much of the work on which the WMRSS Phase 2 and 3 Revisions are based, and a fundamental reality check is needed over the next couple of years. The property market and nature (notably, through flooding) are now providing this : policy makers please take note
* These comments apply to the work of both the West Midlands Regional Assembly/?Development Agency and the GOWM Housing Consultant’s Report.
