This Annual Monitoring Report (AMR) makes reference to both plans, adopted (2006) and emerging (2014). Where the Local Plan 2014 is referred to, it should be noted that this plan has been submitted to the Secretary of State for examination and may be subject to change prior to adoption. However, the council believes it is appropriate, for the purposes of this AMR, to cautiously make reference to this emerging plan as part of this monitoring and reporting document. The Annual Monitoring Report (AMR) provides background information on the city and highlights the issues that need to be considered when reviewing or developing planning policies. Cambridge Today (Chapter 2) and the Contextual and Local Indicators (Appendices A and B) provide a general picture of the city. Analysis of policies in the Cambridge Local Plan 2006 from previous AMRs has been used to inform the policies in the Cambridge Local Plan 2014: Proposed Submission, which will replace the Cambridge Local Plan 2006. This year’s AMR includes commentary and policy analysis of the 2006 Local Plan and provides additional information on the progress of the Local Plan 2014 and its associated documents. Local Plan Progress (Chapter 11) The Cambridge Local Plan 2014 was submitted for examination on 28 March 2014. Four blocks of hearing sessions took place between November 2014 and April 2015 and dealt with joint matters affecting Cambridge City Council and South Cambridgeshire District Council. The Proposed Modifications consultation was held between 2 December 2015 to 25 January 2016. On 31 March 2016 the Councils submitted the consultation responses, evidence base documents and associated proposed modifications to the Inspectors for consideration. Hearing sessions resumed in June 2016 covering the Joint proposed modifications issues of: housing; objectively assessed housing need; five year housing land supply and proposed joint housing trajectory and Green Belt. The Inspectors followed the joint hearing sessions on proposed modifications with Cambridge only matters and issues between 14 June 2016 and 7 September 2016. Hearing sessions for South Cambridgeshire District Council only matters commenced on 1 November 2016 and are currently scheduled to run until March 2017. Page | iii Executive Summary There are a number of South Cambridgeshire issues which are due to be scheduled for examination in public in the new year, these sessions will include strategic sites and the strategy for the rural area. Following this, examination sessions will focus on the remaining joint issues of transport, Gypsies and Travellers, omission sites and the Cambridge only matters concerning housing policies, site R17: Mount Pleasant House and student accommodation. Some of these sessions require the councils to produce further information for the Inspectors before hearing sessions can be scheduled. Following completion of the Local Plans examinations hearing sessions the Inspectors will write a final report on the outcome of the examination. Any major changes that are then required to the plan will be subject to a further round of consultation before the plan is adopted. It is envisaged that the plan will be adopted in 2017. However, this is dependent on progress made during the inspection. Work is underway to produce various SPDs that will support policies in the Local Plan 2014: Proposed Submission. These SPDs will be adopted following the Local Plan. In 2016 two draft SPDs were consulted upon, have been agreed at the council’s Development Plan Scrutiny Sub Committee and are currently awaiting the adoption of the Local Plan 2014. These documents were: Ridgeons Site, Cromwell Road: Planning and Development Brief SPD and the New Museums Site Development Framework SPD. Mill Road Depot: Planning and Development Brief SPD and Mitcham’s Corner Development Framework SPD have been subject to consultation and are due to go to DPSSC for approval in January 2017. Land North of Cherry Hinton SPD is due to be agreed at committee for public consultation in January 2017, subject to the resolution of issues. The emerging Local Plan is still being examined. The Council is unable to adopt these SPDs until the Local Plan has been found sound and adopted. In the interim period, prior to adoption of the SPDs, these documents provide context and guidance as material consideration in the planning process. Designing Cambridge (Chapter 3) The council will be updating its Sustainable Design and Construction Supplementary Planning Document. It will be used to support a number of policies in the Local Plan 2014. The SPD will be adopted following the adoption of the Local Plan 2014. The Cambridgeshire Flood and Water SPD has been produced by Cambridgeshire County Council in conjunction with the Cambridgeshire local planning authorities. It was subject to consultation between 4 September and 16 October 2015. The SPD will be adopted following the adoption of the Local Plan 2014. Page | iv Executive Summary Conserving Cambridge (Chapter 4) The Historic Core of the Central Conservation Area has been reviewed and the Appraisal will be finalised and published in the near future. Public consultation on the Conservation Area Appraisal took place between 8 February and 20 March 2016. Both Cambridge City Council and South Cambridgeshire District Council have worked together with Sport England and the respective National Governing Bodies for sport to develop two sports strategies: a Playing Pitch Strategy 2015-2031 and an Indoor Sports Facility Strategy 2015. Both strategies will normally be refreshed every five years, to provide an up to date evidence base. Action plans for each strategy will be monitored on an annual basis to determine the progress made towards implementing each strategy and inform the process of refreshing each strategy. No planning permissions were granted contrary to Environment Agency advice on the grounds of flooding or water quality in the 2015/16 monitoring year. Living in Cambridge (Chapter 5) A total of 884 dwellings (net) have been completed in the last monitoring year (2015/16). 14,000 dwellings are to be provided between April 2011 and the end of March 2031, therefore the annualised projected requirement for Cambridge is 700 dwellings per annum.

  • Cam Valley Forum Response to the Greater Cambridge Online Survey on Green Infrastructure
    The Cam Valley Forum is an Dr Alan Woods unincorporated association, Hon. Secretary registered with HMRC as a Cam Valley Forum charity. [email protected] [email protected] https://camvalleyforum.uk CAM VALLEY FORUM RESPONSE TO THE GREATER CAMBRIDGE ONLINE SURVEY ON GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE This paper responds to the invitation from the Greater Cambridge Green Infrastructure Opportunity Mapping project to comment on assets, weaknesses and gaps in the green infrastructure network in Greater Cambridge, and to share priorities. Further information on the project is available on the website https://greater-cambridge-consultation-hub-luc.hub.arcgis.com/. 1. Which green infrastructure sites are thriving and provide the most value to people and wildlife in Greater Cambridge? It is difficult to respond without knowing what is meant by ‘thriving’ and ‘value’. Sites can be well- used while being degraded ecologically (e.g. Jesus Green has little ecological value as a grassland habitat). Sites can be less well-used (low ‘utility’ value) but provide valuable wildlife habitats (high ‘existence’ value). Paradise, Sheeps Green and Coe Fen are exemplars of good practice. These areas have quite high biodiversity, very capable management and combine traditional wetland pasture management by cattle with provision of open recreational space. The Rush stream also provides a very valuable site for wildlife in a near urban setting. Urban wildlife (in Cambridge) is substantially more biodiverse than in the surrounding countryside, especially where there are major gardens with good tree and shrub cover. 2. Which green infrastructure sites need intervention to enable them to provide more value to people and wildlife in Greater Cambridge? See question 4 3.

Our local nature reserve at Logan’s Meadow beside the river Cam has become the new home to some endangered water voles after we created a new backwater and reed bed there last year. Logan’s Meadow is one of the designated wildlife sites and local nature reserves we manage in the city, to provide habitats for animal, bird and plant life, and to provide a little taste of nature to people. As well as water voles, Logan’s Meadow is a great place to spot other wildlife including dragon ies, king shers and swifts, which return to nest each year in the reserve’s striking swift tower. Water voles have also been spotted along Cherry Hinton Brook, particularly between Burnside and the Coldham’s Lane branch of Sainsbury’s, following work to restore habitats for G Barnwell East – East of Barnwell Road, wildlife along this ecologically signi cant near Uphall Road Shelford chalk stream.

  • Cambridge Biomedical Campus Transport Needs Review – Part 1
    Cambridge Biomedical Campus Transport Needs Review Part 1 and Part 2 Addendum 4 February 2019 This note acts as an Addendum to the Cambridge Biomedical Campus Transport Needs Review Part 1 and Part 2 Reports. The Reports have, where possible, been updated as the Study progressed, but inevitably there have been some further changes to external factors since their substantive content was finalised. This Addendum updates this information. These updates do not change the recommendations or conclusions from the Study. The updates are presented in a sequence starting with broad policy-level updates and continuing through to more specific scheme and service updates. Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority The Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority are working in partnership with the Greater Cambridge Partnership to deliver schemes within the authority’s area, particularly in relation to Cambridge Autonomous Metro (CAM). Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire Local Plans The South Cambridgeshire Local Plan1 was adopted on 27 September 2018. The Cambridge Local Plan2 was adopted on 18 October 2018. Greater Cambridge Partnership Updates The Linton Greenway is now aligned to the Cambridge South East Transport Study Programme. The West of Cambridge Package, formerly known as the Western Orbital Scheme, consists of providing improved Park and Ride, cycling and pedestrian facilities for trips from locations west of the City. The Cambridge South West Park and Ride scheme aims to provide an extension to the existing Park and Ride at Trumpington, and to create further Park and Ride capacity, through either multi- storey parking at Trumpington or a new site to the west of M11 Junction 11.
