Representation ID: 53271
Received: 02/10/2020
Respondent: Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG)
Paragraph 3 of Policy 1A should be reworded as follows in order to make explicit the need to deliver health infrastructure as part of the development (changes in BLOCK CAPITALS):
“The Councils will work to secure the comprehensive regeneration of North East Cambridge during the plan period, in particular the creation of a new high quality mixed-use city district, providing at least 8,000 new homes, 20,000 new jobs, and new physical, social and environmental infrastructure, INCLUDING HEALTH CARE FACILITIES, that meets the needs of new and existing residents and workers, as well as delivering tangible benefits for surrounding communities. In order to achieve this, the Councils will work in collaboration with the County Council, Greater Cambridge Partnership, other strategic partners and landowners to:
a. Secure and deliver the interventions and infrastructure needed to deliver the vision and objectives for the area including: the required modal shift in accordance with the North East Cambridge Transport Study; district-wide networks and services; relocations and land assembly; environmental, amenity, and community health and wellbeing standards; a network of functional and multi-use open spaces; and innovative approaches to community facilities provision;
b. Actively manage the timely delivery and phasing of homes, jobs and infrastructure, INCLUDING HEALTHCARE FACILITIES, taking action where necessary to address or overcome barriers to delivery;
c. Engage local residents, community groups, schools, colleges and local enterprises in establishing ongoing partnerships and initiatives aimed at involving communities in shaping the places within North East Cambridge where they live and work, and to maximise job opportunities for local people in both the construction phase and beyond;
d. Implement measures to facilitate and administer a low car dependency culture; and
e. Create a cohesive, inclusive and strong community, including sustainable public sector service delivery in the area.”
