  • Cambridge Nature Network Final Report
    Cambridge Nature Network Final Report FOREWORD I’m delighted to introduce this important report. For years, now, we have known we need to ensure nature’s recovery, and for years that has been an all-too-elusive ambition. In fact, we are still overseeing nature’s decline. It’s a ship that simply must be turned around. Now we have a clear way forward. This report, building on the ambition to double nature in Cambridgeshire, tells us precisely how and where we can do it. Working from the ground up, looking at real places and the actual state of nature, it offers for the first time a tangible plan for the revitalisation of nature in the 10km around the city of Cambridge, based on what is already there and how it can be brought back to life. And there’s more. Fully integrated with the vision for nature recovery is one for the enhancement and creation of green spaces for public recreation and refreshment – vital needs, as we have come to understand fully during the covid-19 crisis. The risk with nature recovery is that in our enthusiasm we may do the wrong thing in the wrong place: plant trees on peat or valuable grassland, or put hedgerows in where the landscape should be open. This report will ensure we do the right thing in the right place. It provides a place-based analysis of where existing nature sites can be enhanced, what kind of nature-friendly farming to encourage, how to create stepping-stones to create new, linked nature networks, and how, overall, the ambition for doubling nature can be met.

  • Circumambulation May 2020
    A CIRCUMAMBULATION OF CAMBRIDGE, MAY 2020 Early May 2020 was a ,me for some considera,on. The UK and much if not all of the rest of the world had become subject to the spectre of social quaran,ne. So, what to do? Some thought of doing this and some of doing that, and many might have thought of doing something else en,rely. We looked at eachother and decided we’d go for a walk. But where? A walk can be undertaken for exercise, or for rumina,on, or indeed s,mula,on. We are not that energe,c: the griLy purposefulness of runners and pounders and hikers seems very purposeful, but it seems to be all eyes forward and swea,ness and expensive clothing. We don’t do that. We want to wander and gaze about. Cambridge is an economically thrusOul city – it’s a boom town – and this, naturally, translates into it being a demographically thrusOul city. It’s burs,ng its boundaries – it’s so aLrac,ve that great tracts of land all around it are being converted from farmland to housing. It’s a very topical topic in Cambridge – is this a good or less than good thing? So, let’s go and have a look. Picture Cambridge as a gourmand. It would say that it has a discerning palate and that it chooses its dishes with prescience and precision. It is well-fed. It is one of the first in line when goodies are being proffered, and it maintains it chooses only the most piquant and the most appe,zing.

    Southern Fringe Community Forum 6.45pm, Tuesday 23rd October 2018 Cambridge Professional Development Centre, Trumpington. Chair Cllr Katie Thornburrow Cambridge City Council Lead Officer Debbie Kaye Head of Community Services Cambridge City Council Presenters Vicky Haywood Cambridge City Council David Malia Cambridge City Council Phil Doggett Cambridge City Council Vicky Chipp Countryside Properties Sean Martin BDW homes Tomislav Dushanov AstraZeneca Welcome and Introduction The Chair welcomed all and introduced the agenda. 1. Open space up-date David Malia (see presentation attached). Q: Are there cattle drinking troughs on Trumpington Meadows Country Park? A: Yes, these are fitted with self-filling water taps to reduce wastage. Q: What teenage provision is there? A: The community park at Trumpington Meadows (T.M) has a multi-use games area and tennis courts and the second phase on the Clay Farm Country Park will have a skate park, basketball courts and other teenage amenity. Comment: A preference for the allotments on TM to be called Trumpington Meadows allotments and those on Clay Farm to be called Clay Farm allotments. Q: The dates for transfer and use of the allotments have consistently slipped which has caused endless frustration. What is the reason for this and when will they be ready? A: There is no definite date that can be relayed tonight, however they are within the final defect process now and everything is being done to bring them forward as soon as possible. This will be followed up with our legal team for progress checking. Comment: It would be useful for the City Council to re-engage with those on the waiting lists for the allotment to ensure that the correct provision and people are matched.

This review has been carried out using well recognised residual valuation techniques by consultants highly experienced in the preparation of strategic viability assessments for local authority policy development as well providing as site-specific viability reviews and advice. In order to carry out this type of assessment a large number of assumptions are required alongside the consideration of a range of a large quantity of information which rarely fits all eventualities. Small changes in assumptions can have a significant individual or cumulative effect on the residual land value (RLV) or other surplus / deficit output generated – the indicative surpluses (or other outcomes) generated by the development appraisals for this review will not necessarily reflect site specific circumstances.

Introduction 3 2. SPD Stakeholder Workshop 1 4 3. SPD Stakeholder Workshop 2 10 4. Conclusion 14 5. Appendices 17 SNAPDRAGON CONSULTING / LAND NORTH OF CHERRY HINTON / MAY 2017 2 1. Introduction 1.1 Background Cambridge City Council and South Cambridgeshire District Council have prepared a Supplementary Planning Document (SPD), for the site known as Land North of Cherry Hinton, with assistance from Terence O’Rourke and Snapdragon Consulting. The 47-ha site sits across the border of Cambridge City Council and South Cambridgeshire District Council’s (SCDC) authority areas. The site forms part of a larger allocation of land in the adopted Cambridge East Area Action Plan (2008). It is identified as a site allocation for 1,200 homes in the emerging Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire Local Plans with 780 units earmarked for Cambridge and 420 in SCDC. Landowners Marshall and The White Family agree the land is suitable for development and that proposals can be delivered while airport operations remain on the site owned by Marshall. 1.2 Purpose and scope The purpose of the SPD is to provide planning guidance to developers wishing to prepare any future planning applications for the site, as well as assisting planning authority officers in assessing future applications. The drafting of an SPD for the area presents an opportunity to ensure a masterplan is delivered for the area in a comprehensive and coordinated manner with all local stakeholders given the opportunity to be involved in the masterplanning of the site.
