Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 56624

Received: 25/11/2021

Respondent: Gamlingay Parish Council

Representation Summary:

8 Western Gateway proposal is supported. However the proposed boundary to the area cuts Gamlingay parish in half. It does not include important woodland edge environments to the west and south of the settlement bordering central Bedfordshire. There is opportunity to include some acid heathland and grassland habitats and enhanced managements practices within the Western Gateway area. The boundary should be redrawn to include the whole of gamlingay parish up to the Central Bedfordshire border.
