Received: 10/03/2021

Respondent: Mrs Sally-Ann Harding

Representation Summary:

•Site is Green Belt. Brownbelt land available in Baildon should be used. Consider land around Otley Road -commercial development. Dilapidated housing should be redeveloped.
•Green Belt impact is moderate –this should be High. Site should be left as agricultural fields. New development adjacent to these sites has taken Green Belt and is not in keeping.
•New housing cannot be sensitively developed without impact on the landscape.
•West Lane is the only access point, is already a bottle neck and not fit for additional traffic. At school time traffic is at a dangerous level. It is not wide enough for cars to pass with so many parked cars.
•Highway network issues for accessing West Lane. Routes are already over capacity and wont cope with additional vehicles.
•Impact of building work will be unacceptable. Will have negative impacts on existing residents. Noise pollution, commercial traffic, pollution. Negative impact on value of existing properties.
•Who are the owners of the sites? What are the covenants of development of this land?
