Draft Bradford District Local Plan - Preferred Options (Regulation 18) February 2021
Representation ID: 19632

Respondent: Sarah & Neil Makin
Number of people: 2
The number of houses feels too great in relation to this part of the village, which has already had a recent new development of 18 houses and a further 6 now being built.
The loss of green belt land will spoil the feel of this part of Addingham as well as having a detrimental affect on the environmental aspect of the area.
The drainage system cannot cope now and further housing will worsen the problem of flooding.
The percentage of new houses is going to put pressure on the limited facilities of the village, which has one primary school.
The development will adversely affect the quiet attractive character of the village, quiet roads backing on to fields, open countryside and a distinct village feel and identity.
