Received: 13/03/2021

Respondent: Christine Trotter

Representation Summary:

1. The site is in Green Belt and is protected by the Government’s National Policy Framework.
2. I understand that the housing needs of the Bradford region can be satisfied by using the existing Brownfield Sites without transgressing onto Green Belt land.
3. There is strong environmental evidence and support for safeguarding the local countryside from any major development.
4. This massive housing development will inevitably place a severe strain on the existing fragile infrastructure of the area.
5. The site is currently used by many people for outdoor recreational and exercise purposes.
6. The site is also recognised as having historical and cultural significance for the Ben Rhydding area.
