Draft Bradford District Local Plan - Preferred Options (Regulation 18) February 2021

Representation ID: 16347

Received: 24/03/2021

Respondent: Newett Homes

Agent: Quod North

Representation Summary:

Newett Homes object to the rejection of WI/003 (Land North of Crack Lane).

The Site’s appropriateness for development in Green Belt and landscape terms, as well as general suitability, availability and deliverability has been demonstrated previously and again in these Representations. The Site should be identified as a residential allocation in the DBLP.

It is rejected in the SLA due to potential landscape impacts, but this is without any detailed assessment or consideration of the Site (other than on its Green Belt impacts) that, as noted below, do not correspond with the previously submitted information .

Newett Homes disagree with the SLA’s unsubstantiated comments that are anticipated to be lined to the GBOP SSA’s assessment.

The Site has low potential impact on the Green Belt. The GBOP SSA should be amended to reflect this information and the Site should be allocated. SPD2 confirms that the Site is available, deliverable and viable for c. 15 dwellings.
