Bradford Council has ignored the evidence of flood risk on this site, the difficulty of access to/from main traffic routes, and the necessity of road access through the village to get to jobs, rail services and secondary schools. Permitting development here (already granted and underway) makes a complete mockery of this after-the-fact consultation. The Council has inflicted an eyesore upon this previously popular area of grazing land and recreational opportunity. The site has been turned into a sea of mud (which the flooding and drainage evidence predicted) and which will continue to cause overcharging of the drainage facilities in this village. The properties authorised are not what the village needs and will only serve to bring more commuters into the village and onto the roads into Leeds and Bradford.
