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

Representation ID: 1108

Received: 09/03/2021

Respondent: Mr Tim Creasey

Representation Summary:

Increase in local traffic (planning states a third party route may be required to access the site which will further this impact). The local primary school already creates problems which this would massively exacerbate.

Negative impact on the diverse fauna and fauna in the immediate area.

Encroaching on an extremely popular area for children and people taking exercise which councils should trying to promote rather than building on these green field sites.

The proposed area seems to have been purposely fenced off and allowed to go fallow by the landowner so it can be seen as an area not in use and ripe for development (as other areas in the neighbouring vicinity are which will no doubt be considered for development if this gets approved) rather than opened up for the local community to enjoy and manage as they currently do with other areas of Gill Beck/Tong Park.
