Representation Summary:

Housing Distribution - Addingham

It is accepted that Addingham, as a Local Service Centre, is an appropriate location for some housing growth. However, the number of sites allocated to Addingham would mean that it will increase significantly in size, at a much higher rate than some of the Principal Towns and also a higher proportion of growth than some of the Growth Centres that are identified as sutainable locations for growth. Addingham is not a sustainable location for significant growth as it does not have the level of services or employment opportunities available in larger settlements. The Housing Allocations should roll-out the strategic policy SP3 and therefore allocate fewer houses to Addingham, and locate them in more sustainable locations.
