Respondent: John & Elisabeth Stanley

•Concerned about the increase in houses to be built in Addingham from 75 to 175 without notice.
•Accept that Government policy is to increase housing but feel the use of Green Belt sites is detrimental.
•In the last few years a significant number of new builds have taken place with these houses being unaffordable to most local young people, no doubt any new houses will be similar.
•Housing plans are under the influence of property developers who are unwilling to invest in less profitable areas.
•We contend that building on any green belt land is detrimental to the surrounding area wherever it might be.
•It impinges on the quality of the surrounding area and calls into question the ability of the whole infrastructure of wherever new builds take place.
