We disagree with the accessibility rating in the HELAA results as it does not reflect the Government's connectivity
tool.
For Land off Royston Road, Melbourn, the Government's tool shows that the site is comparable to much of the surrounding area in the western part of Melbourn, whereas the HELAA has assessed the site as Red.
On behalf of the landowners, this submission is made by SF Planning Ltd in response to the Draft Greater Cambridge Local Plan for consultation (Regulation 18), in relation to land off Royston Road, Melbourn.
The Site was previously promoted through the Greater Cambridge Call for Sites (May 2024). This submission is included at Annex A. This representation provides;
i) an updated position now that the draft Local Plan consultation has gone live;
ii) comments on the Council’s HELAA assessment of the Site; and
iii) comparison with the sites in Melbourn proposed for allocation.

The HELAA's availability scoring rationale is unclear . Despite Land off Royston Road, Melbourn being recognised immediately available without legal or ownership impediments, the availability is given an amber scoring.

The disparity between the assessments applied to each HELAA site indicates that they have not been applied equitably and that some site have been omitted from allocation unreasonably.
Examples have been provided in the accompanying attachments.
