Greater Cambridge Housing Trajectory and Five Year Housing Land Supply - Main Document

Representation ID: 168569

Received: 14/10/2019

Respondent: Bidwells

Representation Summary:

Land North of Worts' Causeway

At the time that CEG responded they considered it likely that the application would be submitted in July 2019. The Council confirmed in July 2019 that an EIA would be required. This was clearly unexpected at the time the questionnaire was completed and has resulted in a delay to the application.

The Councils' state that "a revised timetable for submission of the outline planning application is being prepared". Therefore, it is not at all clear when the outline planning application will be submitted, when it might be approved, when the site might be sold to a housebuilder, when reserved matters might be submitted or when construction might start onsite.

There is no clear evidence that this site is a realistic prospect of being deliverable within the five-year period and should therefore be entire removed from the 5YHLS.
