Respondent: Leeds City Council

The proposed allocations around the Holmewood area, encroaching into the green belt to the south of Tyersal and to the west of Drighlington, raises concerns.

Firstly, concerning the general encroachment and reduction of the strategic green belt gap between Leeds and Bradford; secondly the significant amount of green belt land that is required for release for 5 proposed housing sites for 1,447 new homes. The sites are SE45, 31, 13, 18/H and SE46, 47, 48/H and non-green belt site SE19/H and thirdly the overall impact of these sites and significant housing numbers on infrastructure provision in Leeds.

In setting exceptional circumstances for the release of these sites Leeds City Council would wish to see justification that all other options have been exhausted for housing in other locations within the settlement hierarchy.

It is also understood that Bradford City Council’s position is that the highway improvements as shown on the interactive map for Wakefield and Tong Road are sufficient to support the number of houses proposed. We wish to reserve our position on this until further evidence / information is provided through further consultation and duty to cooperate discussions.

While we welcome the modest allocation of our client’s land in respect of Holme Wood North, we are
disappointed to see that the full extent of the Holme Wood Extension has not been allocated for housing.
