I wish to reflect on the changing face of Baildon, my desire to preserve it's future.

Baildon's heritage and aesthetic values are prime in this regard.

The green fields along West Lane have been eroded over recent years, it would be tragic if we lost more natural beauty for the sake of 46 houses, which are not needed.

Baildon's population has exploded recentley without improvements to infrastructure.

The roads are choked at peak times, the potential for another 200 vehicles, inevitable if the proposed schemes go ahead, would be intolerable.

Certain areas of Baildon are susceptible to flooding.

Similar proposals have been rejected in the past, and it seems every time that happens the avaricious planners, hell bent on getting what they want, simply re-apply.

Residents of Baildon deserve to be heard on this matter

There would be concerted outcry if this plan is not nipped in the bud.
