Housing Distribution - Baildon

Baildon’s target is an extra 250 properties but there are already 80 properties with consent granted leaving 170 required properties although the plan still lists well over the required amount at 217.

18 reasons for objection listed (see submission) including concerns relating to use for brownfield land before greenfield sites; loss of green belt - many alternative non green belt sites in Baildon have not been considered; access traffic and highways issues; adverse impact on air quality; loss of the only green spaces left along West lane; impact on local wildlife such as deer, foxes, birds and bats; there is a lack of public transport in the area; finally Bradford is part of the WYCA review which is likely to result in further parcels of non green belt land becoming available.
