Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 58173

Received: 13/12/2021

Respondent: Dr Stephen Kennedy

Representation Summary:

With climate change this is set to get worse. Permission for development was rejected for the 2018 Plan because of flooding. Why would this have improved now?
