Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 57780

Received: 11/12/2021

Respondent: Carbon Neutral Cambridge

Representation Summary:

We support the proposals for provision of at least one EV charging point per home..

we would like to see a REDUCTION in the required total number of parking spaces per property. The S Cambs local plan currently requires 2 one of which is on the curtilage. This wastes land and encourages private cars

if developers were allowed to provide just 0.5 spaces fewer, the development would take 5% less land. This would improve financial viability, and hence provision of affordable housing. It would also allow more space for biodiversity

To enable this car clubs and safe cycling routes
