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

Representation ID: 24908

Received: 23/03/2021

Respondent: Bradford District Ward Councillor (Conservative)

Representation Summary:

Even with a very low housing unit density indicated (just under 19units/ha), this is a clearly undesirable proposal, with even the report citing ‘high potential for urban sprawl and a ‘major impact on openness’. Given the almost standard commentary with regard to ‘sustainability’, I find it difficult to conceive of what might be considered a ‘not sustainable’ site if this one doesn’t qualify for that description. Access and already heavily compromised road infrastructure is relevant here and there is no realistic opportunity for improved public transport. This is a poor and ill-considered proposal.
