Representation Summary:

Site selection
Having reviewed the initial site strategic recommendation document it seemed flowed and arborary in the selection/classification of sites providing a narrow view of assessment and judgement vs criterial. The reduced environmental impact being one of the key selection reasons for the Dennybrook site but with little consideration to the natural environment impact

Environmentally
The land comprising this 2,400 acre site is high quality agricultural land, growing essential crops. Not to mention the wildlife impact
There is no brownfield element to the site, a priority under the Government’s National Planning Policy Framework. Other (rejected by BBC) proposals for LP40 such as Twinwoods include brownfield elements and should be prioritised.

Unsustainable location
Car use will increase so again negatively impact the environment contradicting what the initial assessment Unlike Temsford/Wixhams/Little Barford options
