Representation Summary:

This assessment was done in Nov 2020. Honeydon and St Neots flooded in December 2020. There are 5 watercourses which run from Staploe Parish into the rivers just upstream of St Neots. A development of 10,800 homes at Dennybrook (site 977) would increase the chance of flooding in St Neots and Honeydon. NPPF 2020 167. The assessment should incorporate cross border effects on St Neots. The methodology for preparing a strategic flood risk assessment was updated in Sept 2020 increasing the stringency of risk assessments. Therefore this flood risk assessment needs to be updated.
