Gavin Williamson, MP for South Staffordshire, has won his campaign to stop the proposed development at Landywood Lane.
The deadline for the developer to appeal to the Planning Inspectorate, against the District Council’s decision, has now passed. No appeal has been made so the development will not be going ahead.
The application to build 141 homes on green belt land was thrown out by South Staffordshire District Council late last year.
Following reports of a likely appeal, Gavin sent out a petition that received 4,281 signatures from residents protesting the development. The petition was presented to Parliament earlier this year.
Gavin said: “I think the petition, which received a massive response, played an important part in persuading the developers not to go ahead with the development.
“Without the help, support and effort that the people of Cheslyn Hay and Great Wyrley put into this campaign, we would not have defeated the proposal. I particularly want to thank every single person for their efforts, for all that they did, whether it was to sign a petition, help fold and stuff envelopes or actually go out and deliver leaflets. Without these people, we would not have won. I am delighted residents’ views have been heard.”
