DMD 78 Nature Conservation

Development that has a direct or indirect negative impact upon important ecological assets will only be permitted where the harm cannot reasonably be avoided and it has been demonstrated that appropriate mitigation can address the harm caused. Mitigation will be secured through planning obligations or planning conditions.

Major development on sites located within areas of deficiency must maximise opportunities to improve access to nature.

This policy should be read in conjunction with Core Strategy Policy 36.
