Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options
Representation ID: 57391
Received: 10/12/2021
Respondent: Persimmon Homes East Midlands
Persimmon Homes note that this policy requires 40% affordable housing provision which is equivalent to the percentages sought under the current Cambridge City Local Plan and the South Cambridgeshire Local Plan. As identified within the wording of the policy the Viability Assessment as it progresses through the process will be key in determining whether such percentages are affordable when considered alongside other policy requirements and the different land values in place within different parts of the Greater Cambridge District.
