Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 56672

Received: 26/11/2021

Respondent: Ms Lesley Tubb

Representation Summary:

Very concerned to see the north area of St Matthew's Piece and the allotments on New Street are identified as 'opportunity areas'.

As protected open spaces there should be no question of any 'opportunity' to build on these valuable green spaces.

For the avoidance of doubt these areas need to be removed from the classification of an 'opportunity area' and re-classified as untouchable protected open space for the health and well-being of the local community.
