Comment

Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 58273

Received: 13/12/2021

Respondent: Pigeon Land 2 Ltd

Agent: DLP Planning Ltd

Representation Summary:

As set out in the general comments section Pigeon do not support the level of new housing growth proposed, and would encourage a more ambitious level of growth which reverses unsustainable commuting patterns and looks to meet the identified housing need.

Pigeon notes concerns relating to water supply necessary to accommodate a higher level of growth, however this could be addressed through a stepped requirement allowing for the necessary infrastructure to be delivered.

Pigeon supports an approach which identifies new housing targets for future neighbourhood areas which do not form part of the homes figures to be met by allocations.
