Representation Summary:

Section 2.3, sets out that “Development will respond positively to the environmental context and realise opportunities to boost biodiversity and resilience”. The current land has limited biodiversity value, but, has the potential to enable the provision of biodiversity enhancements and the creation of a green infrastructure which will connect the site to the wider countryside. On this basis, the development of the site for mixed use development would enhance biodiversity in accordance with National policy aspirations and the draft proposals in the Local Plan.
