The site of the proposed alpaca trekking business PLANS to open a new alpaca trekking business in Baildon have been refused due to concerns it would bring traffic to a quiet residential estate. Earlier this year an application for the new centre, which would allow visitors to walk the animals around Baildon Moor, was submitted to Bradford Council. Submitted by Danielle Smith of Altreka, the plans said the site would be accessed through an opening off Luis Court, a housing estate backing onto the green fields around Baildon Moor that was built in 2004. Guests would be encouraged to meet in Baildon Town Centre, where a minibus would pick them up and take them to the site.
Alpacas PLANS to open an alpaca trekking centre, where people will be able to take part in a number of alpaca related activities have been submitted to Bradford Council. If approved the business would be based on a rural site behind Luis Court - on the edge of Baildon Moor. Submitted by Danielle Smith of Altreka, the venture would allow customers to take the animals out on walks around the moors. The application says an animal shelter and reception office would be based on the site. Although many have written to Bradford Council supporting the application, other Baildon residents have raised concerns over the plans.
