Histon & Impington Neighbourhood Plan - Submission consultation

Representation ID: 167732

Received: 19/06/2019

Respondent: Mr Chris Meadows

Representation Summary:

There will be a new primary school on the southern edge of Buxhall Farm. But this is only just inside the 800m boundary mark of the northern city centre (the post office). So does the 800m guideline need adjusting, or does the centre need moving?
The same 800m boundary is referred to with respect to housing. But with the new school being at Buxhall farm, shouldn't sites that are near to the new school (specifically North and East of the new school) be encouraged rather than prevented?
