I wish to object to proposed developments on Green Belt land around Shipley, that is proposals SH4/H, SH5/H, SH6/H, CO1/H and NW19/H, totalling 808 proposed properties.
There are various other proposals close to this area as well. In the plan each development is analysed in isolation rather than taking any account of their combined effect on the area.
Increased traffic and congestion on already busy roads, increased pollution.
Local primary and secondary schools are already full and oversubscribed.
Ecologically, these five proposed developments will have a devasting effect on the local environment, removing a significant amount of Green Belt constituting parts of the Green Infrastructure Corridor.
the Council should look at maximising the use of brownfield sites for housing.
