Mill Road Depot Draft Planning and Development Brief SPD

Representation ID: 31198

Received: 22/07/2016

Respondent: Cambridge GRT Solidarity Network

Representation Summary:

The draft SPD's assessment of context is flawed, and so wrong in very significant respects that it invalidates the whole draft SPD in its present form:

Land uses (fig 14 and 2.2.15): fig 14 is misleading in that it shows 'community and education' as a single block. What this actually comprises is: the Bharat Bhavan (the former Library, which is now in very limited community use); Council offices (not at all in community use); and the Regent Language school (in private commercial hands not in community use).

The existing land uses need to be clearly and fully distinguished; this is vital for properly assessing the SPD's scope for influence and change.
