Housing Distribution - Ilkley and Wharfedale

I have already noted above that there is a question mark over the housing growth required to cater for Bradford's supposed population growth.

The allocation of development to Ilkley and to Wharfedale generally is itself questionable on the basis that additional housing in this area is likely to be only for the benefit of those working in Leeds and further afield. It will not enhance urban Bradford nor Bradford employment opportunities. Indeed it will not enhance Ilkley whatsoever, nor employment opportunities in Ilkley itself.
