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

Representation ID: 4414

Received: 23/03/2021

Respondent: Mrs Alison Shepherd

Representation Summary:

The main objection to this site is the removal of natural soakaway which increases the flood risk for Clayton Beck. Several homes on the Middlebrook estate flooded internally for the 1st time in Feb 2020. If water currently pools on this site in bad weather, there will be even more water added to the beck if the site is developed. Access along Deep Lane would also not be acceptable as the noise and pollution would impinge on what is currently a very quiet valley. The beautiful skyline of Clayton Beck valley would be ruined.
