Regional City - concerns about the potential impact which the proposed level of housing growth for Shipley and Lower Baildon might have upon elements which contribute towards the Outstanding Universal Value of the World Heritage Site at Saltaire.

A number of the proposed allocation sites are located in areas which the Saltaire World Heritage Site Environmental Capacity Study has identified as being important components in the setting of the World Heritage Site. Three of these sites (sites SH4/H, SH5/H and SH9/H) are potentially capable of accommodating well in excess of 100 dwellings.

Policy SP3 should make it clear that housing sites around Saltaire will be required to safeguard its Outstanding Universal Value.

B, add the following additional development requirement:
‘Safeguard those elements which contribute to the Outstanding Universal Value of Saltaire.’
