Draft Local Plan

Respondent: Mr. Michael R. M. Newman
I object to the statement:
"In line with the NPPF, planning permission will not be permitted for development resulting in the loss or deterioration of irreplaceable habitats, including ancient woodland and the loss of aged or veteran trees found outside ancient woodland, unless the need for, and benefits of, the development in that location clearly outweigh the loss."
In my view and I'm sure that of many others, "the loss or deterioration of irreplaceable habitats, including ancient woodland and the loss of aged or veteran trees found outside ancient woodland" cannot be "outweighed" by the benefits of any development.
