10 Infrastructure, Education and Community Facilities

Introduction

10.1 Infrastructure is essential to the wellbeing of the District. This includes schools and colleges, community halls, hospitals, health centres and surgeries, nursery units, accommodation for disadvantaged persons and other uses required to serve the community such as highways, flood prevention measures, landscaping, public and other forms of noncar-borne transport, nature conservation and other elements. These add to the quality of life of Calderdale’s residents and help make the District a place where people want to live, work and visit. Support for these facilities is therefore an important part of the Council’s Vision. Improving education is at the forefront of the Corporate Priorities and it is necessary to provide a planning framework for the consideration of the land use needs of these facilities.
