Huntingdonshire District Council is to consult with the Oxmoor community during a six week period starting on the 9th September to hear their views on further regeneration and development opportunities within and around the area of the former Sapley Square as a first stage in helping to prepare a master plan for the area.
The proposals for further development could bring forward new community facilities and safety improvements, providing an attractive, safer environment for the community to enjoy. Further developments in this area will build upon the successful multi-million pound regeneration programme that created a new heart for Oxmoor which included the new Oak Tree Centre adjacent to this site, an enhanced neighbourhood centre with smart new shops and community facilities, 300 family homes and the Coneygear community park and other improved green open spaces.
During this stage, there will be several opportunities for the community to engage in the process of identifying issues, coming up with ideas and considering options for developing in this area.

The council is seeking the views of local residents and businesses and the consultation period runs from 9th September to 21st October. If you are not able to attend a public event, you can still take part using the interactive version by following the link to the right during the consultation period.
Once this first stage consultation is over, the District Council will continue to communicate with the local community to keep them informed of what was said during the process by all involved and provide feedback on the issues and ideas raised. These will then be used to help inform the development of a master plan of the area. The master plan could result in the development of up to 60 new homes, major improvements to housing for the elderly, community managed workspace for public, private and voluntary businesses, enhanced open space and a much safer environment linking all areas together for the benefit of the local community.
