Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 57429

Received: 10/12/2021

Respondent: Mission Street Ltd

Agent: Barton Willmore

Representation Summary:

We suggest that affordable workspace provision be flexibly sought on a proportionate, site by site basis.

Clarity must be given on how affordable workspace is to be calculated and applied across the districts.

Clarification should be given as to what constitutes a ‘larger commercial development’ in the context of the requirement to deliver affordable workspace.

Flexibility should also be included within the policy so that the rate of affordable workspace is proportionate to the scale of the development.
