Representation ID: 44907

Received: 10/10/2021

Respondent: Cannock Chase Council

Representation Summary:

Support the inclusion of the policy however suggest alteration of reference to
SAMMM in paragraph 3) and 10.20 be amended to reflect potential future mitigation
strategies which may be adopted by the SAC Partnership.
Paragraph 10.18 refers to other SAC which may be affected and this is supported
however this should be relocated as Policy ENV2 currently only refers to the
Cannock Chase SAC.
Paragraph 10.19 Support the membership of Walsall and Wolverhampton Councils
to the SAC Partnership.
Paragraph 10.22 Whilst it is acknowledged that it is up to individual authorities to
determine the mechanism for the funding of the required mitigation, it should be
recognised that each dwelling or other type of development which has a significant
impact upon the Cannock Chase SAC will need to mitigate its full impact not just
those developments which relate to developments of 10 dwellings or more. The
means of mitigating for all the portion of development which lies within the 15km
zone of influence and how the full cost of the mitigation is to be met ‘not just a
reasonable minimum level of contribution’ needs further explanation.
