Local Plan 2040 Draft Plan - Strategy options and draft policies consultation

Representation ID: 6683

Received: 14/09/2021

Respondent: Cardington Parish Council

Agent: Cardington Parish Council

Representation Summary:

para 3. Growth and spatial strategy options. 3.10 – 3.17 Growth strategy options.

The (Draft) Sustainability Appraisal Report Evidence Base document clearly shows in Appendix 5 that the Spatial Strategy Options differ significantly in the feasibility, extent or even possibility of achieving the Vision and Objectives, Theme 1: Greener, and Environmental Net Gain. The Appendix does not attempt to rank the Options overall, however, and as this is not a task within the competence of Cardington Parish Council, we are unable express a preference.

We hope that such an analysis is carried out as a response to this consultation but from what we can see from the preliminary work of the (Draft) Sustainability Analysis, none of the options is able to deliver the Plan Objectives Theme 1: Greener or Environmental Net Gain.
