Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 57584

Received: 10/12/2021

Respondent: Mr Michael Jump

Representation Summary:

I object for these reasons:
1. The proposed additional land is green belt and was previously already designated as a soft belt after the last expansion.
2. There is no guarantee of water supply. Extraction is already maximised and more would create exponential damage to aquifers and the local environment.
3.;The proposed additional land is not needed. There is already adequate land for current expansion needs.
4. As a local resident, I believe this plan will have a huge negative impact on my life.

I consider this an Ill-conceived and speculative land grab, and as such it should be refused.
