Draft Bradford District Local Plan - Preferred Options (Regulation 18) February 2021
Representation ID: 333
Received: 20/02/2021
Respondent: Mr Jeremy Meer
Representation Summary:
I am in agreement with proposals to protect the viability of Bingley town centre, but am absolutely not in favour of plans to develop on Greenfield sites or release Green Belt land to be developed on as part of the plan. These were designated Green Belt for a reason and the environment should remain protected. There are enough empty brownfield sites to develop and the plan should focus on these primarily. In addition, the wider infrastructure in Bingley is at capacity (schools, healthcare, roads & transport links), and therefore development should be limited without further improvements to that infrastructure.
