Draft Greater Cambridge Planning Obligations Supplementary Planning Document Consultation
Appendix A: Children and Occupancy Yields
Representation ID: 200453
Received: 28/01/2025
Respondent: Urban & Civic

We note that the proposed Child Yield Multipliers are in excess of those adopted by CCC within its Planning Obligations Strategy (March 2016) across several age categories and dwelling sizes. It should be noted that the Education Evidence Review mechanism within the Waterbeach S106 agreement is underpinned by CCC’s detailed multiplier.
It is unclear how the multipliers set out within the SPD have been calculated and their applicability in the context of CCC’s role as the Education Authority.
In paragraph 11.9, there is ambiguity in the wording which states “(not school rolls)”, which needs to be clarified.

Chapter 20: Planning Obligations to support affordable workspace

The aspirations behind affordable workspace are laudable, and at Waterbeach Barracks we have been involved in activating meanwhile-community-uses in existing buildings at early stages of development to meet local demand. It should be recognised however that delivering this with ongoing subsidy within new built commercial spaces will be a challenging obligation for many developers, as well as creating onerous management approaches which may lead to additional costs for developers. These aspects will need to be considered as part of the viability process to ensure the obligation is proportionate and sustainable.

Chapter 14: Public Open Space

The SPD should also set out a clear process on how development proposals which are unable to provide on-site nature/wildlife mitigation can provide meaningful off-site mitigation in line with the vision for the forthcoming Local Nature Recovery Strategy.
We would like to take this opportunity to encourage GCSP to support Natural Cambridgeshire, the County Council, and the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority in progressing forthcoming Local Nature Recovery Strategy.
