Draft Black Country Plan
Representation ID: 22193
Received: 11/10/2021
Respondent: Druids Heath Golf Club
Agent: Harris Lamb
Representation Summary:
Part 2 and 3 of the policy duplicates the provisions of the emerging Environments Bill. Once the Bill is adopted it will require 10% biodiversity net gain. Dual regulatory control is inappropriate. As such parts 2 and 3 of the policy should be removed.
Measures to achieve biodiversity net gain on site could reduce coverage and consequently the number of units. This matter needs to be carefully considered in light of the draft Plans density aspirations.
