The Sustainability Appraisal identifies negative effects on biodiversity for almost all of the preferred Gypsy/ Traveller site allocations. Plan must demonstrate how it complies with the NPPF principles of supporting and enhancing nature and local environments. Believe that this can only be achieved if all development sites demonstrate a positive and proportionate contribution to establishing a coherent and resilient ecological network for the district.

Plan should have a policy requiring development sites to contribute towards enhancing district wide networks of biodiversity and green infrastructure (GI) and take into account the Warwick District GI Strategy and Warwickshire, Coventry and Solihull Sub-regional GI Strategy and associated Biodiversity Offsetting appendix.
