This site is Green Belt, and should be left as such. Access to Derry Hill if this was permitted would be extremely hazardous, and access through the adjacent site (currently under construction) would only generate more through-traffic. CBMDC continues to ignore the clear evidence that this site and the higher ground contains acquifers and stores groundwater. In times of heavy rain this leads to an overload of Menston's Victorian drainage system and flooding downstream. This is a totally unsuitable site for development.
