In summary the development of this site for residential purposes is not considered to be a suitable option on the grounds of land ownership, access, housing need and Green Belt considerations and I strongly object. There is no viable access solution and the site meets 3 of the 5 Green Belt criteria with no exceptional circumstances for Green Belt release.
As a local resident on Scalebor I am concerned that the impact the increased traffic will have on pollution and road safety.

I also don’t feel that additional housing anywhere in the (rural) Wharfe Valley helps Bradford to meet the requirements of levelling up northern cities, where the stated aim is to increase housing in urban areas. Burley is more than 11 miles from Bradford, and travelling by car to Leeds or Bradford takes upwards of 1hr, and will significantly increase pollution, limiting Bradfords goal of becoming carbon neutral
