Brookgate support Option A. Proposed Submission South Cambridgeshire Local Plan Policy E/1 provides sufficient support for employment development and redevelopment to enable the continued development of high technology R & D clusters in the Science Park. There is no requirement for further policy guidance which would risk complicating proceedings for developers, potentially hindering the continued successful development of the Science Park.

Cambridge Science Park does not require to be included in the AAP; it has adequate policy direction and protection through the Draft Local Plans.
To include the Cambridge Science Park within the boundary of the AAP risks that the AAP area will be seen as a success delivering increased employment floorspace by virtue of the science park's altering state; development which would happen regardless of the AAP being in place or not.
Cambridge Science Park does not require to be included in the AAP; it has adequate policy direction and protection through the Draft Local Plans. Any further material planning considerations which may be associated with this document may lead to delays in decision making as it is unclear how long it will take for this plan to be adopted. These potential delays and proliferation of planning guidance is in direct contrast to Central Government initiatives to reduce planning bureaucracy and the presumption that policy compliant development should be approved without delay, as directed by the NPPF.
To include the Cambridge Science Park within the boundary of the AAP risks that the AAP area will be seen as a success delivering increased employment floorspace by virtue of the science park's altering state; development which would happen regardless of the AAP being in place or not. The success of the AAP site will have a direct bearing on the ability of Cambridge to attract global R&D investment, if it is not delivering employment floorspace and affordable dwellings quickly this needs to be identifiable quickly and resolved through a review. To include the Cambridge Science Park in the boundary risks masking this important monitoring factor.

Development at Cambridge Science Park (CSP) is covered by South Cambridgeshire District Planning Policies. These include matters of permitted use of development, car and cycle parking, quality of design, transport, landscape and sustainability.
There is no reason to add a layer of policy for further development at the CSP; the existing and emerging planning policies give the Planning Authority the ability to assess and only permit high quality and sustainable development.
The National Planning Policy Framework supports economic development and encourages its swift delivery. Adding a layer of unnecessary policy would not be in conformity to the NPPF.

Applying policy guidance ensures cohesive approach over both sites, which are linked in employment use. One site may provide expansion opportunity for businesses on other, and should not have added restrictions/leniency.

As set out above we support the inclusion of the Science Park within the AAP area. However, the issues related to the Science Park are not unique and there is no requirement for additional policy guidance for Cambridge Science Park. Site specific policies may be required to control the type and quality of development on opportunity sites within the AAP area.
