MY PARTICULAR CONCERN IS THE LOSS OF GREEN BELT SO TO COMBINE
DEVELOPMENTS WITH GOOD CONSERVATION I SUGGEST THE FOLLOWING:-
1. GIVE INCENTIVES TO DEVELOPERS TO ENCOURAGE THEM TO USE BROWN SITES
2. ENSURE THAT DEVELOPERS CONSULT WITH CONSERVATIONISTS AND WILDLIFE
EXPERTS AND COMPLY WITH THEIR SUGGESTIONS
3. INSIST THAT AN AREA OF EACH SITE IS GIVEN OVER TO WILDLIFE AND SUITABLE
HABITATS
4. EVERY EFFORT SHOULD BE MADE TO WORK AROUND EXISTING TREES
5. EVERY SITE COULD AND SHOULD CONTRIBUTE TOWARDS GOOD CONSERVATION AS
PART OF THE DEVELOPMENT BY PROVIDING:-
GRASSED AREAS TO AID DRAINAGE
WILDFLOWER AREAS TO PROVIDE HABITATS FOR INSECTS
BIRD BOXES; BAT BOXES; INSECT/BEE HOTELS
AREAS OF HABITAT THAT PROVIDE EASY ACCESS FOR HEDEHOGS, FOXES,

6. WHEN ADDING LANDSCAPING TO A SITE MAKE IT WILDLIFE FRIENDLY - E.G. USE NATIVE
HEDGES, USE TREES AND SHRUBS THAT PROVIDE FOOD FOR WILDLIFE
I FEEL THAT IF WE HAVE TO ENCROUCH ON GREEN BELT IT COULD AT LEAST BE DONE
SUSTAINABLY AND SYMPATHETICALLY - WE ALL HAVE A DUTY OF CARE FOR OUR
ENVIRONMENT AND A RESPONSIBILITY TO MAINTAIN IT'S NATURAL BALANCE.
THANK YOU.
