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

Representation ID: 3744

Received: 23/03/2021

Respondent: Sandy Lane Parish Council

Representation Summary:

Sandy Lane Parish Council object strongly to the proposed development of this site to house 160 dwellings: in addition to the highly significant 'constraints' detailed below, the Parish Council's concerns regard the Plans’ impact on existing services and facilities, transport, access for sites, flood risk, and impact on heritage sites such as listed buildings locally. Specifically the Parish Council’s concerns are focused upon any further development in the parish with no infrastructure to support this - there is already an over-subscribed school, and no doctors - as well as the existing highways limitations, the fact that this is Green Belt land, and the flood risk. The flood risk is an imperative objection in this already built up area, where there are several areas subject to surface water flooding, which further development in the area would only serve to acerbate.
