Decision:

The New Communities portfolio holder

 

AGREED

 

A)     That the Council respond to the proposed mineral sites as laid out in table 1 of the report, with the exception of Land at Hinxton (South of A505 near Whittlesford Bridge) which the Council should object to, due to the additional traffic it would place on roads that were already busy.

 

B)    That the Council respond to the proposed waste recycling and recovery sites as laid out in table 2.

 

C)    To request the County Council to review whether the Minerals and Waste Development Plan is the appropriate vehicle for providing borrowpits for the A14 upgrade and consider how the borrowpits should be restored after the A14 work has been completed.

 

D)    That the Council should object to the proposed Railhead at Waterbeach, due to the proximity of the access road to Denny Abbey and the extra traffic that it would add to the A10.
