Representation Summary:

Land West of Comberton (HELAA Site 40152)

Offers the opportunity for a well-planned residential development to include significant areas of public open space, habitat creation and strategic landscaping.

We have analysed the local authorities HELAA review which appraises the development potential of the site. We have identified a number of errors/misinterpretations which we would like remedied as the preparation of the plan progresses.

We also comment that the ‘Estimated Dwelling Units’ in the ‘Development Potential’ section should be changed to 300 to 600 units depending on the scale of development proposed.

For the reasons highlighted in the representation we encourage the Local Planning Authority to amend the Development Strategy in the GCLP by including more allocations in rural settlements. Land to the South West of Comberton (Ref:40152) scores well in the HELAA review and should be identified as a residential allocation.
