Cambridge Northern Fringe East AAP - Issues and Options

Representation ID: 30509

Received: 02/02/2015

Respondent: Cambridge City Council

Representation Summary:

Option B. The flexibility to allow change of use to residential without planning permission was introduced to bring redundant commercial property back into beneficial use in areas where there was no demand for commercial property (or the commercial property did not meet market requirements and so was unlettable). Given the demand in Cambridge and that demand will be met by property designed to meet current tenant expectations, this will not apply on CNFE and so there should be a policy to protect new employment development (at least for a reasonable time period).
