BPC would agree that land use needs to be efficient in both city centre and rural settings. Revisions to increase the target minimum from 35 to 50 per hectare need careful consideration, but could assist in the delivery of affordable homes.
We would suggest that apartments could be part of the housing mix. Apart from being less expensive to build, apartments have a smaller total land footprint, are ideal for increasing housing density above the minimum 35 dwellings per hectare and, if built correctly, can support the BDMC’s Climate Emergency goals.

Clever design of housing developments will help the Council not only to meet it's housing targets without having to build on Green Belt and Greenfield sites, but will also help to create settlements that are more cohesive and sustainable. I am not a Town Planner, but even a brief amount of research provides evidence that pleasant living environments can be created with a housing density of at least 50dph. ( For example, http://www.sustainablesuburbia.co.uk/webpages/Presentation2.html, and https://www.cprelondon.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/DoubleTheDensityHalveTheLandNeeded_1.pdf). I would therefore want to see point B read as 'Unless site specific considerations indicate otherwise; developments should achieve minimum density of 50 dwellings per hectare (net'). Inclusion of the phrase 'Unless site specific considerations indicate otherwise' allows for a lower density when this is necessary.

he green belt was set up to stop urban expansion. In the case of
Bradford, to stop it becoming part of Leeds. Bradford planning office
being completely undemocratic wishes to pour cement and tarmac all
over the green belt in Tong. The reason I say undemocratic is as
follows. ~There has not been one survey, or opinion poll taken in
Bradford, which agrees with Bradford councils views on building on
green belt. In fact approx 90 % of population of Bradford totally
disagree with Bradford councils housing and road plans. However, the council which claims
represents the people is acting like a fascist state.
Your new road and housing plans directly effect my Grade II house and
land. However, you have not had the decency to contact me over the
last 10 years. I doubt you care less about me than the environment and
the creatures that need it.

A policy of a housing density of 50 dpha for all sites, needs to be adopted. This will lead to more affordable homes being built and homes built in more sustainable locations.

We support the proposed policy which seeks to achieve a minimum density of 35 dwellings per hectare (net).
Part D of the policy states that locations close railway stations should seek to achieve densities in excess of 50 dwellings per hectare (net) whilst ensuring quality and well designed living environments. We support the
approach to making the best use of land in sustainable locations such as the site at Baildon which is close to Baildon Railway Station.

The policy should require a housing density of 50 dpha for all sites.
The site capacity assessments of many of the allocated sites do not even meet the housing density requirements of Policy HO2.
The the proposed greenfield land take in the draft Plan is approaching double what it would need to be if all greenfield development were built to the policy-compliant 50dhpa net:
● roughly half of all the proposed greenfield land allocation is a product of low densities, not of meeting development need;
● the majority of Green Belt housing allocations are proposed to be developed well below the densities required by the Plan’s policies relating to density - analysing some of the Green Belt sites indicates net densities averaging around 26 dpha. There is no sound rationale for releasing Green Belt land if the result will be 5,000 homes developed at non-policy compliant densities.

Of particular relevance to the HMRC Shipley site are draft Policies H02 Housing Density and H04 Housing Mix. The Council will expect new development to comprise a well-designed layout, providing the type and size of housing needed in the area. Developments should achieve a minimum of 35 dwellings per hectare, and at least 50 dwellings per hectare in city centre/ town/ sustainable locations near to railway stations. Urban housing schemes such as this would be supported in Shipley.
The Council’s approach to the strategic allocation of sites and ensuring efficient use of land through appropriate density and mix of development is supported. The HMRC Shipley site is a sustainable, suitable and deliverable location for a high quality residential led development to deliver much needed housing for the District.

2. All developments should include a significant proportion of affordable housing and meet requirements for density to accommodate these. They should not have a high proportion of detached, expensive houses, which are not attainable by many of the people we need to ensure Ilkley continues to thrive, such as younger people and those working in the public sector and service industries.
