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

Representation ID: 3357

Received: 22/03/2021

Respondent: Baildon Branch Labour Party

Representation Summary:

I support this in general as it is part brownfield and part greenfield site. Given previous difficulties with the selling of other properties built on the curtilage of the old Ferniehurst School, I would expect that this will be an extension of social housing. It should be noted that the nearest primary school geographically is at the top of Baildon Bank.
A concern is that recreation land is being taken away. The UDP of 2005 pages 15 and 16 references this. Further when the existing, adjacent housing development was first suggested it was recognised that this recreation land ought to be compensated.
