Land is designated Green Belt to prevent urban sprawl. No evidence to show that there are “exceptional circumstances” why the fields have to be removed from Green Belt.
The proposal is not “sound” as per the requirements of the NPPF.
There are many alternative (non-Green Belt) sites suitable for development in the Baildon area.
Development will generate considerable traffic on a lane with poor visibility, pavements of limited width and thus generate considerable risks to the lives and health of pedestrians and motorists.
The development will not meet the overarching environmental objective of protecting or enhancing the environment including valued landscapes.
The development will increase pollution in the area as well as generate pluvial flooding . Development close to the Moors will inhibit and reduce the environment that supports local wildlife.
Bradford Council is part of the West Yorkshire Combined Authority Review. This is likely to result in further parcels of (non-Green Belt) land becoming available for development.
Insufficient places for children at local schools.
