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

Representation ID: 30220

Received: 24/03/2021

Respondent: Harworth Group & Nufarm UK Ltd

Agent: Johnson Mowat

Representation Summary:

Draft Policy EC1 part D should be omitted (i.e. to omit sites NE22/E and NE23/E as employment allocations). The delivery of a green economy/science/technology based scheme at site NE23/E is able to be delivered via the current planning application, with its particular uses and details controlled by condition, if the Council considers that ‘very special circumstances’ for this exist. This would appropriately be an ‘over/extra’ employment site with appropriate development delivered according to its particular credentials. On this basis, there is no particular justification for the allocation of either site or support for any development at site NE22/E. Alternative site(s) will need to be identified to provide the 31.55 ha of land attributed to these.
