Chapter 5.3 provides details of 35 preferred housing allocations for the Bradford SE. Half of the area requirement is to be provided in two large allocations to
the east of Tong Street. We support these allocations but consider additional allocations are necessary to provide choice and ensure suitable deliverable sites are
provided to meet local need across the South East area, particularly in Low Moor and Wyke area where only 2 housing allocations providing a total of 152 dwellings are
proposed in the north of the area.
-The Area Strategy states that the allocation of land for new homes is fairly restricted by the hazardous installation sites.
-Sustainability Assessments have been carried out for sites SE/070 and SE/164 and have been discounted. The reason the site are rejected is due to ‘proximity to hazardous installation’ and ‘too small’. We object to this conclusion and consider that the site is suitable for allocation to deliver sustainable new homes.
-Consultation with the HSE has confirmed that the HSE don’t advise against development for up to 30 dwellings up to a density of 40 per hectare in the Middle
zone. There is therefore no technical constraint to the principle of housing development on site SE/070 as a result of the HSE Consultation Zone and the
site should be allocated for housing.
-Technical reports & maps relating to the site have been undertaken and submitted.
