Representation ID: 30035

Received: 02/02/2015

Respondent: Urban&Civic Ltd

Agent: David Lock Associates

Representation Summary:

The proposed vision is broadly supported but could be improved. It is important that CNFE is not viewed in isolation from planned strategic developments. There is clearly the potential to reinforce the strategic importance of the greater north Cambridge area, in particular, the potential for a positive relationship between CNFE area and the proposed Waterbeach New Town should be emphasised in the vision because of the potential for new homes and jobs in close proximity and the potential for new sustainable infrastructure to benefit both developments.

It is also important that the regeneration vision is not compromised by the continued presence of strategic aggregates and waste management facilities.
