Question 10
No, as mentioned. Before, this density of building, the rebuilding of a sewage works to enable it to happen, how can this be a good response to the climate crisis, what ever you say you are doing to mitigate it. Isn’t it time for Cambridge to say NO, we cannot take anymore giant companies coming here. It is greed, it is time to spread the wealth further afield. Cambridge is a small market town with a never ending urban sprawl. You are killing the place that we love. Addenbrooke’s cannot cope and nor can the Crematorium.

No! You are destroying countryside in green belt land to allow the construction of over-development with a high density that rivals central London. Do people really want this in a post-Covid era??

No, this proposed high rise development is likely to become a slum area in the future.

How can you be when you are moving a sewage works to greenbelt? How can large concrete blocks of apartments with little green space be responding to climate change?

Poor level of committal to Passivhaus standards in build quality. Passivhaus technology is demonstrated in Germany and Northern Europe to relieve residents of fuel poverty and responds to climate crisis. Only 12% additional cost at construction. Should be enforced throughout, whatever development takes place.

Probably not, but no idea. The onus is on you to prove it as we do not have the knowledge to decide.

Promising, but remains to be seen.

Too many housing units in and around Cambridge. Doing a 'good job' at b*****ing Cambridge sprawl. What will you do next?

Respond to the climate crisis by not building.

No, very poor. All homes should be zero carbon! The technology is there so as it's a new build, it should be the norm. NOT AMBITIOUS ENOUGH!

Cycling and walking MUST be the norm.

NOT ENOUGH GREEN SPACE, OVERCROWDING, SLUMS OF THE FUTURE. Housing crammed in like battery chickens.

You are building homes too close together- with very limited space. Water conservation weak, Should be more like Eddington.

The Draft Plan in itself seeks to mitigate the climate crisis through ensuring general design principles are efficient. However, conversely, the Draft Plan currently proposed, seeks to relocate a major water treatment works currently sited on contaminated land, which has no operational need to relocate. Embarking on a substantial construction / relocation, that is not without risk on many levels, to a greenbelt location, would not seem to be maximising the role in responding to the climate crisis. The feasibility studies now concluded and referenced on p32 of the plan, as set out in the 2018 Adopted Local Plans do not appear to have been published. There doesn’t currently appear to be a comprehensive evaluation of the combined impact, including the relocation activity as such this cannot be considered to be maximising the role the North East Area Action Plan has to play in responding to the climate crisis.

The removal of the recently (2015) updated WWTP will create many unnecessary emissions.

NO. We will still be stuck with pollution from other countries.

The aspirations are good but can they be delivered both through the standard of building, the 10% biodiversity net gain and the proximity to shops and services . Will solar panels, ground source heat or community heating schemes be part of the mix? Can the Councils make the developers deliver?

In general, Cambridgeshire is a dry, hot part of the UK. Big new developments here will only exacerbate issues with water resources.

Proposals are at best neutral. It is a bit of a lost opportunity to actually reduce our (i.e. Cambridge's) carbon footprint. Why don't you have the guts to ban private cars throughout Cambridge City?

To move the sewage works to a greenbelt site to facilitate the building of North East Cambridge is not responding to the climate crisis.
