Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

In the past this policy has resulted in some poor schemes notably round Cambridge Station. The so called triangle development now called Warren Close, the Brookgate development around Mill Park and the so called Kaleidoscope scheme Glenalmond Ave. In all these cases the Council has failed to provide sufficient open space leading to a poor environment and residents, particularly those with children have been denied adequate open space. The Council standard response has been to take money under the section 106 scheme which has been a confidence trick spending money remotely.
