Cambridge Northern Fringe East AAP - Issues and Options

Representation ID: 29650

Received: 02/02/2015

Respondent: Brookgate

Agent: Bidwells

Representation Summary:

Option 1 proposes a lower level of development on a brownfield site which is situated in a highly sustainable location. This represents inefficient use of the land and does not accord with the NPPF which seeks to maximise the use of previously developed land (para.111). Furthermore, Option 1 does not propose any new residential development or a local service hub and will not provide a mix of land uses at densities that make best use of the site. Option 1 does not therefore accord with the development objectives identified to guide the delivery of the vision for the CNFE.
