Many respondents express a desire for sustainable development that prioritizes green spaces, community well-being, and infrastructure improvements. There is a strong emphasis on the need for affordable housing, particularly for essential workers, and the importance of integrating local amenities such as schools, healthcare facilities, and recreational spaces into new developments. +The responses to the South Cambridgeshire Council's proposed development plan reflect a complex and multifaceted sentiment among residents. While there is notable support for the development of a vibrant city district east of Milton Road and the expansion of the Cambridge Biomedical Campus, significant opposition exists regarding the potential impacts on local infrastructure, green spaces, and the character of existing villages. Many respondents emphasize the need for sustainable practices, affordable housing, and improved public transport to accommodate growth without compromising the quality of life for current residents. Concerns about overdevelopment, particularly in rural areas and the southern cluster of villages, are prevalent, with calls for preserving the green belt and ensuring that any new developments are accompanied by adequate infrastructure and community facilities. The overarching theme is a desire for balanced development that prioritizes environmental sustainability, community well-being, and the preservation of local identity. -Conversely, a significant number of respondents oppose the proposed developments, citing concerns about overdevelopment, traffic congestion, and the potential loss of the rural character of villages. Many emphasize the need to protect green belt land and existing natural spaces, arguing that the current infrastructure is insufficient to support additional housing. The sentiment is particularly strong against relocating the wastewater treatment plant, with many asserting that it is unnecessary and would contribute to environmental degradation. - -Overall, the responses reflect a community that values sustainability, accessibility, and the preservation of local identity, while also grappling with the pressures of growth and development in the Greater Cambridge area. - -**OPPOSE**: 61.29% _(114)_ | **SUPPORT**: 33.33% _(62)_ | **NEUTRAL**: 5.38% _(10)_ +**OPPOSE**: 59.14% _(110)_ | **SUPPORT**: 34.41% _(64)_ | **NEUTRAL**: 6.45% _(12)_ ## Aim Breakdown @@ -28,21 +29,21 @@ The aim breakdown identifies which aims are mentioned within each response.
