Respondent: Pigeon Land Ltd

Agent: Savills

Representation Summary:

We conclude that the 5YHLS is below the five-year requirement.

Collectively, the removal from the trajectory of the following ten sites would reduce the projected five year supply by over 500 dwellings:
* Police Station, Parkside, Cambridge - 50 dwellings
* Orchard Park, Parcel COM4 - 42 dwellings
* Land south of Babraham Road, Sawston - 25 dwellings
* Land south of 1b Over Road, Willingham - 26 dwellings
* South of Thompsons Meadow, Trap Road, Guilden Morden - 8 dwellings
* Rear of 79 High Street, Meldreth - 18 dwellings
* Land at Teversham Road, Fulbourn - 110 dwellings
* Land north east of Rampton Road, Cottenham - 154 dwellings
* Land north of Worts Causeway - 140 dwellings
* Land south of Worts' Causeway - 180 dwellings

The variance in lead-in times for the following strategic sites would reduce the projected five-year supply by over 850 dwellings:
* Cambridge East - land north of Cherry Hinton
* Waterbeach New Town
* Bourn Airfield New Village

The adoption of a peak annual delivery rate of c.70 dpa supported by the evidence in the document, on the Darwin Green (NIAB) site alone would reduce the projected five-year supply by over 150 dwellings.
