We note that Queensbury falls within Zone 3 (Outer Bradford and Keighley Zone) which requires a 15% affordable housing requirement on greenfield sites and 10% of brownfield sites. We concur with this requirement and can confirm the Queensbury Golf Course site will be able to deliver this many affordable homes, which would equate to 39 affordable homes based on 260 dwellings.

We consider the remaining parts of the policy dealing with vacant building credits, tenure, and rural housing are appropriate and there is sufficient flexibility built into the policy to allow for alternative approached to be taken towards the delivery of affordable housing, which is in line with current national policy guidance.
