Representation ID: 1772

Received: 16/03/2021

Respondent: Ms Alicia Dawson

Representation Summary:

- loss of functional greenbelt, urban sprawl, lack of defined settlement boundary and impact on openness. The greenbelt in this location plays an important role in ensuring the separation between the settlements of Bingley and Eldwick and contributes to the transitional nature of Lady Lane. This area of Lady Lane has a more rural nature, making it clear that by continuing to travel north along Lady Lane towards Walsh Lane, you are entering the countryside and a rural location.
- not all trees conifers, has a tree survey been undertaken?
- Not a sustainable location, reliant on cars.
- Loss of habitat and biodiversity. Need to provide biodiversity net gain. Impact on opposite priority woodland habitat.
- Cumulative impact concerns, especially regarding highway safety.
- Non inclusive consultation.
