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

Representation ID: 5448

Received: 24/03/2021

Respondent: Andrew Coates

Agent: Rural Solutions

Representation Summary:

This preferred option is proposed probably because of the promotion of site AD1/H, which if allocated would mean this highly visible parcel of land, at the gateway to the Addingham settlement, would be the sole one remaining at this edge of the settlement.

Again, development is promoted at a highly inefficient 19.7 dwellings per hectare.

The promotion of the slither of land immediately adjacent to the roundabout as wildlife areas/SANG is meaningless due to its limited size. Biodiversity net gain will not be significant. If anything, this whole site and that of AD1/H to the west of the recreation ground could be promoted as a holistic wildlife/SANG area.
