Have your say on Development Plans

More public consultation events have been announced to help residents, businesses and organisations have their say on how South Cambridgeshire should be developed over the next 20 years.

New options for supporting up to 30,000 new jobs being created in the district were suggested during a public consultation in the summer, and the consultation now asks views on extra options for housing sites and where a possible community stadium could be located. The latter will be of particular interest to Milton as one of the locations for the stadium is close to the Butt Lane Park & Ride side, the site being call Union Place.
