I took West Midlands Mayor Andy Street to meet with the Corbett Meadow Action Group following the planning refusal to build 84 homes on the site.
We spoke with local councillors Pete Lee and Paul Bradley and Eddy Morton and Michael Liley from the campaign group to congratulate them on their hard work and discuss next steps.
The meadow was recently designated as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation (SINC).
I was really pleased Andy came along to meet the councillors and group members as they all worked very hard to rally local objections to the development.
Whilst we have this win, the developers may lodge an appeal within six months so the campaign is not yet over. It is important that we continue to oppose any development on the meadow working together as a community to do this.
