-Inadequate Primary School Provision - Sandal School and other local schools are over-subscribed.
-Local Road Infrastructure- no scope for additional capacity to the local road network. Traffic levels along West Lane to the centre of Baildon, and on the B6151 to the main arterial road A6038 Otley Road, are extremely congested and frequently at a standstill during peak times. This will be made worse by additional housing development.
-Impact on traffic levels arising from development within Wharfedale.
-Impact on Saltaire Heritage Buffer Zone.
-Steep site. It will be impossible to build on this land in a manner that is sympathetic to the surrounding area.
-Site act as rainfall sinks slowing the movement of water from elevated areas into the river Aire, any development will contribute towards continued flooding of the Aire valley.
-Localised flooding in roads surrounding the Sites.
- Concerns regarding type of house and lack of affordable housing to or serve local needs.
-No justification for Green Belt release
