Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 58174

Received: 13/12/2021

Respondent: Ms Hannah Brown

Representation Summary:

Strongly agree that all new development should be reliant on renewable energy. Particularly support clear targets for energy usage for each building type, and with very limited exceptions for when renewable energy can be sourced off site. Concern that there is no reference to consideration of existing buildings (which may be demolished) to be replaced by new buildings, should this not be in the policy consideration?
