Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 56514

Received: 15/11/2021

Respondent: Mrs Catherine Martin

Representation Summary:

Clandestine destruction of Green Belt at Honey Hill, no consultation via the local plan process. In order to build under 3000 homes by 2041. The Marshall site is not on Green Belt and can accommodate the housing requirement more quickly. Carbon impact of rebuilding a fully functioning WWTP a couple of fields away is massive and totally mad. Moving it 2 fields is short sighted and does not allow for expansion and increased environmental standards relating to storm overflows. Too close to conservation areas and new development of Marleigh and Airport site. Wrong on so many levels
