Wish to add my voice to many others objecting to this development.

Object as local roads are overcrowded, train station/services are at capacity and secondary schools are full – meaning pupils have to be driven miles to school

Above all, object because there is a climate emergency – last thing anyone needs to concrete over more Green Belt land. There are many brownfield sites in Bradford and houses built there would be more affordable for young people. Why build on green field around Burley? Site is home to wildlife and abuts Sun Lane Nature Reserve. Would ruin a beautiful part of the world, and further damage our already battered local wildlife and flora.

Wharfedale risks becoming an extended finger of the Leeds/Bradford conurbation, with no gaps to say where one village ends and another begins. This is an act of appalling environmental vandalism and I object very strongly indeed.
