Draft Bradford District Local Plan - Preferred Options (Regulation 18) February 2021

Representation ID: 11035

Received: 17/03/2021

Respondent: The Strategic Land Group

Agent: Walsingham Planning

Representation Summary:

It is considered that site reference NW/020: Land at Haworth Road, Sandy Lane represents a suitable, sustainable and deliverable location to meet some of the District's existing and future urgent housing need.

If the minimum housing delivery number contained within the Local Plan is correctly reflected as being that derived using the standard method (a minimum of 2,300 dwellings per anum), it is expected the site to be upgraded to forming a proposed allocation.

Releasing this site from the Green Belt and allocating it for housing will deliver various far-reaching benefits, whilst creating limited adverse impacts.

Analysis shows that the it scores favourably to site NW/015 and should form one of the Preferred Options for Green Belt release and housing allocation.
