The current plan identifies there is an imbalance of homes in the area and that smaller more homes suitable for older residents need to be provided. However the plan does not identify where these homes could be delivered, therefore the plan does not meet it's objectives. South Cambs Local Plan suggests it is the responsibility of the neighbourhood plan to identify suitable sites. We would propose amending the Development Framework Boundary to include the garden area adjacent to 104 High Street as a site suitable for smaller housing for downsizers.
