Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 60756

Received: 09/12/2021

Respondent: Bidwells

Representation Summary:

High Street, Longstowe (HELAA site 40387)

Additional information submitted through call for sites proforma to respond to issues raised in HELAA.

Considering the commercial use proposed we do not believe that the distances to the facilities set out in the first responses form are paramount. However the proposed development is situated approximately 2 miles form Bourn which has been identified as a group village.

The aim of policy S/RRA is to support the delivery of a range of smaller sites within the area and support the viability of villages. We believe a mixed sue scheme of this nature meets the requirements of the policy and will significantly enhance the village and benefit its residents for the duration of the local plan.
