Draft Greater Cambridge Planning Obligations Supplementary Planning Document re-consultation - 2025
Representation ID: 200868
Received: 04/10/2025
Respondent: Histon & Impington Parish Council
We would like to flag 17.1.
" All recycling and waste operations are based at the Waterbeach Depot"
There appear to be no mention of "Cambridge recycling waste is still being taken 400miles away to Northern Ireland for sorting, despite previous claims a UK mainland facility could open “within the first half of this year”.
Although we can not confirm without contacting the Council, local media dopes not appear to confirm 17.1 is correct.
If 17.1 is correct, please issue a public statement to confirm this as much criticism was made with regards to using a company 400 miles away.
