Draft Bradford District Local Plan - Preferred Options (Regulation 18) February 2021
Representation ID: 328
Received: 19/02/2021
Respondent: Mr Roger Wilson
Representation Summary:
A study by Edge Analytics for BMDC concluded Bradford’s population growth is now well under the national level with historical change driven by international immigration offset to a large extent by a net outflow of Bradford residents to neighbouring areas.
A population change over the next 18 years of near-zero is one possible outcome reported in the study.
Bradford has a large stock of Brownfield sites (capacity for over 12000 new dwellings recorded on the Datahub in 2019).
Both sites in Burley are Greenfield and Greenbelt.
