Support

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

Representation ID: 3941

Respondent: Mrs Susan Burn

Representation Summary:

Housing Distribution

I have only chosen 'support' because there are only 2 options (support/object) available and on the whole I do support what BMDC is undertaking with this ambitious overall plan.

I would have preferred to have been able to register 'don't know'. I don't feel competent to comment on the plans for different, unfamiliar parts of the District.

I repeat my earlier observation - I think that the plan has failed to look at Burley/Ilkley/Addingham as an integrated community. The housing allocation for these 3 settlements will mean that the strong existing ties between these 3 settlements will be broken. I think this would be a dreadful loss to what is an extremely successful extended community where children grow up together in a safe, healthy and happy local society.
