• Flooding in the fields between Ilkley and Burley is very bad. Cars get stranded. The drainage in these fields hasn’t helped. How is it OK to build on top of this?
• It is Green Belt land which helps nature and wildlife. What will happen to them?
• Burley, Ilkley, Addingham are all separate they should not be joined as that will ruin their character.
• Ilkley Grammar School will not cope with extra pupils. Pupils from Burley/Addingham which would include my children will be pushed out. I have stayed in this area because I want my children to go to the Grammar School as I did.
• Road safety is a major issue. The road between Ilkley/Burley is often at a standstill. Ilkley needs a bypass before any more houses are built.
• There are many brown belt areas which should be built on rather than green belt.
