Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 58370

Received: 13/12/2021

Respondent: Mr David Moore

Agent: Brown & Co Barfords

Representation Summary:

Focusing the allocations within the Cambridge urban area, on the edge of Cambridge, in Cambourne and new settlements ignores the need to sustain the rural villages and support their vitality. The delivery of small sites can deliver quicker than larger developments and there is more certainty of delivery.
