Update 18/01/2021
Dear residents,
The Parish Council received an update about the above, from The Greater Cambridge Local Plan team, as per below:
“As you are aware, over 650 sites were submitted to us through the ‘Call for Sites’ for consideration as part of developing the new Greater Cambridge Local Plan.
The sites submitted are currently being assessed by officers against a rigorous methodology, as part of the Housing and Employment Land Availability Assessment. We gather topical information about the sites from sources including the Environment Agency, Natural England, the local highways authority, the Councils’ Environmental Health teams, Historic England and other bodies.
We would now like to give you the opportunity to supplement our information gathering with any knowledge you may hold about any of the submitted sites in your Parish or area covered by your Association.
It is not compulsory in any way to provide this additional information at this point in time and you may wish to wait to read and comment on our assessments at the next stage of plan-making, when we will present our proposed list of sites to take forward through the Local Plan.
….the survey is only open to Parish Councils and Residents Associations…to be completed by 5pm on 1 March 2021”
If you have any comments, queries about the above, please contact the Clerk.
Dear Village Resident,
It seems to have been a long time since our last update to residents about the new Community Centre but throughout the pandemic the work has been progressing and we are now at a point where we can ask the architects to seek planning permission for the project.
We have had several Zoom meetings with the architects to adapt and refine the plans displayed at our last public meeting. See the latest plans of the proposed building and a few key things that have happened since our last public meeting and display are represented below. An elevation of this drawing will be available in a few weeks and will be circulated later.
As a group we are also pursuing ways to make The Community Centre as eco-friendly as possible and are looking for grants towards helping to achieve this goal.
We look forward to hearing your views and opinions which can be sent to: Alan.west10@btinternet.com
Can we also take this time to wish you all a Happy, Healthy and Covid-free New Year.
With best wishes
HCCWG

Dear all,
Please find information below from the South Cambridgeshire New Build team:
The New build Team at South Cambs District Council is shortly to acquire new affordable homes from Hill Residential at Grace Crescent Hardwick.
In total 27 rented and 12 shared ownership properties will be acquired by SCDC and will be transferred to them as they are completed – in four phases between 29 January 2021 and Summer 2021.
If there are any residents who would be interested in any of the homes, please see the next action steps to take.

For the shared ownership homes, they should email sales@domovohomes.co.uk
from GCP:
We last issued an update on the Cambourne to Cambridge scheme in June 2020, when the report and Outline Business Case (OBC) for the GCP Executive Board was withdrawn after the Mayor of Cambridgeshire and Peterborough expressed concerns, and indicated that the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority (CPCA) would bring forward an alternative alignment.
Alternative northern routes were recently discussed at the Combined Authority’s Transport & Infrastructure Committee on 4 November, where it was confirmed that northern routes were more expensive, and performed less favourably, than the current GCP proposal.
The Committee did not support the northern alignment and the CPCA has not put forward any alternative proposal to the Executive Board.
In light of this, the GCP Executive Board will now discuss the OBC for the scheme at their next meeting on 10th December.
The Board is recommended to note the preferred route and Scotland Farm travel hub location, and to agree to undertake an Independent Audit Review of the scheme to report to the Board in July 2021.
A public consultation on the detailed design and environmental impacts and mitigations for the scheme – as part of the Environmental Impact Assessment – would be launched in the second half of the year subject to the findings of the audit review.
