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

Representation ID: 1910

Received: 17/03/2021

Respondent: Burley Parish Council

Representation Summary:

See answer at Q6.

3.8.45 Please provide the evidence on which this statement is based.

3.8.50 The issue here is not one of affordability but of income and social housing. Affordable social housing needs to be delivered at a very low starting price.

Whilst BPC accept that it is inevitable that some housing need has to be met from green belt, our previous comments about housing viability in Q5 remain. In this section the housing allocation from Burley is 326 units of 625 houses in the Local Plan.
Why could BDMC not consider an affordable housing initiative as in Manchester?
