Draft Bradford District Local Plan - Preferred Options (Regulation 18) February 2021
Representation ID: 15380

Respondent: Derek & Sandra Markham
Strongly object to these proposals. My concerns:
1. Sites are last remaining green sites on West Lane/Lucy Hall Drive. Building will remove natural beauty of Baildon Moor, and character/appearance of this conservation area.
2. Numerous wildlife living on this area
3. Several streams created on this land during heavy rainfall. This is not fully absorbed on the grassland and runs onto West Lane. Further housing will interfere with this and make matters worse.
4. Priority should be given to building on the many brownfield sites in the Bradford area.
5. Housing estates built on West Lane are high value housing and do not meet the social housing needs of Bradford. Social housing will be out of character with the area.
6. More housing will put further strain on schools and traffic which are currently a problem.
7. There are only limited social/public amenities which will come under further strain.
