Councillor Carl Lis stated in an article dated September 2016 published by the Craven Herald regarding the building of 4 houses:
"I'm supportive of houses being built in the
right places, but I think the time has come in
Ingleton that we are saturated with houses. We
have reached the point where houses are no
longer selling. There is a need for small houses
for rent, but these cannot be described as
houses for rent. I honestly believe we have
reached the point in Ingleton where enough is enough."
