Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 60528

Received: 13/12/2021

Respondent: Taylor Wimpey UK Ltd

Agent: Turley

Representation Summary:

The approach to high quality landscape and public realm is supported. A minor comment is made on the last bullet point of the policy, which sets out the need to ‘provide appropriate types of open space whether in urban or more rural places that link into other sequences of existing or new landscape spaces and wider settings’. It is queried what will be the measure of ‘appropriate’ and particularly whether in relation to Policy BG/EO certain thresholds and types of open space provision will be required dependent upon scale of development.
