Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 60589

Received: 13/12/2021

Respondent: Countryside Properties - Fen Ditton site

Agent: Turley

Representation Summary:

The policy wording on archaeology states that ‘the policy will also require the appropriate treatment of archaeology.’ This is ambiguous and does not appear to identify that this applies to sites where there is likely to be an impact on archaeology. It is suggested that the policy wording is amended to state that ‘the policy will also require the appropriate treatment of archaeology, where development proposals have the potential to impact archaeological remains or deposits.’
