This opportunity to have an input on the development of this village and assist the council in its deliberations cannot be missed. I support the plan. I am anxious that the structure of the village will not be lost in urban development and that care will be taken to ensure a sustainable and comprehensive transport pattern to serve any housing built in the Development Area. Parts of the village are serving as a car park for users of the existing Railway Station to the detriment of residential amenity.

Representation Summary:

I think it is a good idea to have a neighbourhood plan. I believe that the Landbeach marina Science park and the Waste recycling facility should be included in the area plan, despite being in the parish of Landbeach and on the other side of the road, as they represent part of the A10 corridor, and potentially the access to the countryside on that side of the road. Similarly the Science park trades on being near Waterbeach Station and the A10 bus routes. The corridor should not be split in this way when considering development and the amelioration of such development as it affects the settled population.

Dear all, I do think it is a good idea to have a neighbourhood plan in place. I believe that the Landbeach marina Science park together with the Waste recycling facility should be included in the area plan, despite being in the neighbouring parish of Landbeach and on the other side of the road, as they represent part of the A10 corridor, and potentially the access to the countryside on that side of the road. Similarly the Science park trades on being near Waterbeach Station and the A10 bus routes.

It is important that the local people have a strong influence on the future of our village. The proposed area of the whole parish ensures that all development within the parish will be influenced by the plan.

I support the need for a Waterbeach designated neighbourhood area.
Waterbeach is a beautiful, semi rural area and I believe that the views of the residents to keep Waterbeach from over development and haven for wildlife, should be taken into account.

With all the future plans laid out for the Waterbeach area we feel that it is important we are part of a Neighbourhood plan, so we have more say in the development & plans, plus infrastructures in the future.
It is also important that areas such as Denny Abbey do not become surrounded by houses.

It is imperative that the current boundary of Waterbeach Parish Council is maintained which has the villages of Waterbeach and Chittering within it.If Waterbeach New Town is approved which lies within the boundary at the local plan inquiry the residents of both villages need to have a plan in place to address major issues,infrastructure,drainage, affordable housing, public services, green spaces,highways.The plan is also essential because of the already approved 350+ dwellings inside and outside the village framework due to speculative development whilst the local plan is still at the inquiry stage and could take another year to be finalised.

Representation Summary:

Important time for Waterbeach - decisions being made about housing needs for area. Appears this part of county in particular area north of Waterbeach is being viewed as answer. Suffering from lack of strategy and joined up approach between local and national government planning policy. Demonstrated by:

* Planning approval (under central government appeal) for developments north of Waterbeach despite land being proposed for greenbelt in local plan.

* Local plan -proposed new settlement at Waterbeach questioned by inspectorate at first review.

* Government planning announcements appearing to encourage development close to existing employment areas.

Most people appreciate need for increase in housing supply and accept some in Waterbeach but currently speculative planning applications and prospect of massive settlement proposed in Local Plan.

Neighbourhood area application appears to provide mechanism to help ensure sustainable development whilst maintaining the character of village. Will ensure some local accountability for future of Waterbeach.

I am writing in support of Waterbeach Parish Council's application for Neighbourhood Area designation.

This is an important time for Waterbeach with decisions being made about short, medium and long term housing needs for the area. It would appear that this part of the county and in particular the area north of Waterbeach is being viewed as the answer to all three and is suffering from the lack of strategy and joined up approach between local and national government planning policy as demonstrated by:

* Planning approval (under central government appeal) for multiple developments north of Waterbeach despite the land being proposed for greenbelt extension as part of the local plan.

* Local plan, and in particular the proposed new settlement at Waterbeach bought into question by inspectorate at the first review.

* Various government planning announcements which appear to encourage development close to existing employment areas.

Most sensible minded, pragmatic people appreciate the need for a significant increase in the housing supply and accept that Waterbeach should see it's fair share of development, but currently Waterbeach is at the mercy of multiple, short term speculative planning applications (with precedent set for approval on appeal centrally), and the prospect of a massive settlement as proposed in the Local Plan.

I am generally not in favour of adding additional levels of bureaucracy , but this Neighbourhood area application would appear to provide a much needed mechanism to help ensure sustainable development whilst maintaining the character of a much loved village. Additionally it will ensure some local accountability for the future of Waterbeach.

I therefore support the application.

I support the Waterbeach Parish Council's application to develop a Neighbourhood Plan on the basis of the area of Waterbeach Parish.
I believe this area would be the best basis for a Neighbourhood Plan because;
1) It is large enough to include all the elements needed to make an effective neighbourhood plan
2) It is small enough to make the fullest genuine local involvement and participation.
3) It is used to working as a cohesive unit and does so effectively.

My reasons are that it is large enough to include all the elements needed to make up an effective neighbourhood plan, but small enough to make sure that there is genuine interest in local participation.
The present Parish Council seem to be used to working together effectively for the satisfaction of the local people.

I believe that a Neighbourhood Plan is the best way for the local community to take a proactive approach to contributing to decisions on the future development of Waterbeach parish.

Community involvement through such a plan will enable the community to provide strong guidance to the benefit of the existing community and those people likely to move into new developments.

Important issues that the community needs a strong guiding voice in include:
- sustainable community/transport infrastructure of future developments
- drainage and flooding which already affects the village
- road safety in a village currently lacking crossings
- affordable new housing for local people
