Draft Bradford District Local Plan - Preferred Options (Regulation 18) February 2021

Representation ID: 1837

Received: 16/03/2021

Respondent: Mrs Fiona Curtin

Representation Summary:

There is too higher allocation for the village as a whole compared to other settlements in the ward. In terms of sites there are too many sites proposed on greenbelt and additionally a disproportionate number of sites at the western end of the village that is in excess of 1.4km from the limited local amenities including schools and health. A distance that exceeds the councils own target. This will undoubtedly lead to traffic, congestion and pollution issues as people are forced to drive for convenience and access to facilities. The impact on greenbelt at the western end of the village is major and will affect the historical character of the village.
