Gamlingay Neighbourhood Plan Submission version

Representation Summary:

GAM11 – LANDSCAPE AND NATURAL ENVIRONMENT

Policy GAM11 advises that green spaces within developments should be consolidated to create a network of publicly accessible formal and informal green spaces – green infrastructures – for sport and recreation. Cambridgeshire County Council objects to Policy
GAM11 on the grounds that it is not deliverable (as required under Paragraph 16(b) of the NPPF) as not all green space within developments will necessarily be publicly accessible. Therefore, in its current wording the policy does not meet basic condition A.

It is suggested that the words “public open” be inserted at the start of the sentence so that it reads:
“Public open green space within developments should be consolidated to create a network of publicly accessible formal and informal green spaces – green infrastructures – for sport and recreation.”
