It is not acceptable to have any more development of green belt land. It is contrary to the idea of green belt. More and more land in this area is being destroyed by housing development. The council do not listen to the objections of local residents never have and never will. Building on this land will stop natural drainage. Cottingley Beck cannot take any more water. The walls of the beck have already been damaged during in heavy rain and my house is adjacent to the beck so is in danger. No more housing is needed locally a presumption to the contrary is absurd. The roads are already jam packed at school times. The local school does not just cater for children in the area (as you state) but from those outside it leading to traffic problems. Stop this obvious revenue making exercise.
