COMMENT
In relation to possible alternative sites for housing I would like to suggest the land between 162 Skipton road and the proposed site at IL2H. This land is above the flood plain and already considered within the town boundaries. Therefore would have a lesser impact on Ilkley's rural character and traffic flows than either of the Ben Rhydding proposals.

Another option within town boundaries could be development of flood resistant housing on the field between the river Wharfe and Langbar Road.
