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

Representation ID: 6168

Received: 07/04/2021

Respondent: Jessica Murray

Representation Summary:

Firstly I am opposed to developing on green belt. There are plenty of brown land sites that are not being used throughout the district of Bradford. Furthermore due to the pandemic there will be plenty of office blocks which will be unable to be used in the future purely because the workforce will be working from home more often. Please think about how these can be converted into holes before destroying land.

Secondly I’m opposed due to the ‘already at capacity’ infrastructure in ilkley. Schools are at their limit which means more homes with 2+ kids means 600 potential children adding into the primary and secondary school system. The catchment area for IGS is already narrower than it was when I attended in the 90’s. I lived at the top of Addingham and my parents house is now out of IGS catchment and further houses basically will continue to devalue these houses and more.
