Respondent: Mary Tierney

Object for the following reasons:
-Concerns over consultation process.
-Village deserves a clear outline of where housing numbers come from. Data not supplied to support need.
-In area of overlapping North & South Pennine Moors SPA/SAC. Foraging areas need to be considered.
-Location is too far from village centre - people will have to drive, going against sustainability. No cycle paths and more than 400m for a bus stop. Not sustainable when so many more suitable brownfield sites exist close to urban areas, employment, transport and retail.
-
-Flooding is a massive problem. Drainage system will not support more development until remedial action has taken place.
-Noise from A65 – not conducive/compliant with Council’s wellness policy.
-A65 is busy with many accidents. Bringing more traffic increases accident risk. Addingham lacks public transport to places of employment.
-School over-subscribed.
-NPPF Green Belt “exceptional circumstances” policy test not passed – they do not exist.
