Grosvenor supports these policies which are consistent with their objectives to achieve:
Zero carbon - By 2030, Grosvenor will achieve net zero carbon from its buildings, developments, and supply chain.
Zero waste - By 2030, Grosvenor will send zero non-hazardous waste to landfill from its buildings and developments under its control.
Valuing nature - By 2030, Grosvenor’s portfolio will have achieved a significant net biodiversity gain, NBG, responding to the need to restore ecosystems.
Proposals at Whittlesford would provide 300 Net Zero homes and a NBG, making a positive contribution to reducing CO2 emissions and nature recovery.

J/NE: New employment and development proposals
Representation ID: 59146
Received: 13/12/2021
Respondent: Grosvenor Britain & Ireland

As set out in Grosvenor's representations, see comments on the spatial strategy, the plan does not support the employment growth to the south of the City with housing allocations within the RSC. This is a major failing of the Plan.

Homes

Grosvenor generally supports the housing policies, with the exception of the failure to provide adequate housing to the south of the City in the RSC as explained in the representation report and Design Vision. At Whittlesford
it can deliver a mix of housing types and tenures that would cater for all generations, and can be tailored to provide choices for residents of Whittlesford, for example –
i. Homes to rent for young households.
ii. Key worker housing for people working in the science or medical sectors.
iii. Family housing
iv. Elderly living, for which there is a growing need.

The plan fails to optimise the distribution and location of proposed housing in relation to existing rail connectivity as at Whittlesford. Refer to Grosvenor's main representations on the spatial strategy and RSC.
