Cambridgeshire County Council is holding a full council election this year, which means every seat at the authority is up for election.

A bungalow in Cambridge could be knocked down to make way for a 10 person house share. Plans have been submitted to Cambridge City Council to demolish 190 High Street, in Cherry Hinton to make way for a 10-bedroom House of Multiple Occupation (HMO). A replacement two-bedroom bungalow is also proposed to be built at the site. The developer, Nemer Properties Ltd, said its plans to build a new two-and-a-half storey HMO in Cherry Hinton would “contribute towards an identified housing need”.
