Respondent: Bingley Town Council

BMDC Local Plan Policy SP5 Green Belt states that: ‘All sites identified as being released from the Green Belt will be required to offset the impact of removing land from the Green Belt through compensatory improvements to the environmental quality and accessibility of remaining Green Belt land.’ Surely it is incumbent on Bradford Metropolitan District Council to define exactly how and when this should be achieved. The destruction of the Green Belt and requirement for mitigation cannot be left to vague promises without any firm resolution or requirement for action from developers.
