Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 60366

Received: 01/12/2021

Respondent: Gamlingay Parish Council

Representation Summary:

2. Area 8 (P172). The policy misses out half of the Gamlingay ward which will create problems. It also excludes the most significant protected green sites at The Heath and The Cinques. There is scope for some excellent cross border projects enhancing the Acid Heath which stretches to the west to Potton and Sandy. (Gamlingay is part of The Greensand Ridge which has funding for enhancement work as part of Greensand Country).

3. Gamlingay is in the River Ivel catchment but there is only mention of the Cambridge.
