Question 14
Representation ID: 29759

The redevelopment of the AAP site should not consider the relocation or reuse of any of the Waste Water Recycling Centre as this is undeliverable due to remediation and relocation costs, land ownership, service demands and the level of committed investment by the operator.
The AAP site should focus on a more appropriate mix of uses which reflect the constraints and market potential and can be genuinely delivered against a background of substantial infrastructure requirement and uncertainty.

It is not appropriate to try and set design standards, including building heights and densities, before understanding the types of use and the quantum of each use that would be required to make the site deliverable/viable. It is accepted that the Draft Local Plan policies should form the baseline for the development of AAP specific policies.

The surrounding community, which this iteration of the AAP has labelled as some of the most disadvantaged in the City, would be best integrated with the site by an increase in lower skilled employment and apprenticeship opportunities.

Paragraph 9.15 highlights the precise issues with development of AAP site to meet current/future demands of R&D market. Paragraph 9.15 advises that due to issues associated with availability of specific sites and demand for space at that time some of the development could take place beyond 2031. We would contend that at current take up rates Cambridge will run out of suitable, available and deliverable R&D floorspace within next five years.
The employment uses listed include office and R&D but is unclear if market research has been undertaken to support sectors listed.
Paragraph 9.15 highlights the precise issues with the development of the AAP site to meet the current and future demands of the R&D market who would potentially be looking to expand in Cambridge or relocate to Cambridge. Paragraph 9.15 advises that due to issues associated with availability of specific sites and demand for space at that time some of the development could take place beyond 2031. We would contend that at current take up rates Cambridge will run out of suitable, available and deliverable R&D floorspace within the next five years.
The employment uses listed include office and R&D developments but it is unclear if any market research has been undertaken to support these particular sectors listed. The R&D sector is diverse and extremely location sensitive. Is it clearly understood if those high value employment uses will want to locate to a site which is mixed use with waste and industrial uses close to some other uses in the sector but geographically divorced from others? The plan needs to be able to demonstrate that it can bring forward land rapidly to meet requirements for a full range of R&D uses in the immediate term and in the future.
