  • Cambridge City Council (22 006 613)

    Statement Upheld Licensing 17-Mar-2023

    Summary: Mrs E complained about the Council’s processes and decisions regarding the change of use of the land near to her house. She says the Council failed to conduct an environmental impact assessment and it has not demonstrated how it will protect the biodiversity of the site. She also says it failed to properly secure the site and it has now increased the number of organisations that have access to it. We find the Council was at fault not having a robust system to secure the site. The Council has taken steps to resolve this matter, and so I do not recommend anything further. The Council was also at fault for failing to keep sufficient records to demonstrate its decision making. Although this did not cause Mrs E a significant injustice, the Council has agreed to our recommendation to review its record keeping procedures.
