Policy BC1 and masterplan. Object to lack of interconnectivity between public open spaces and with the countryside, contrary to guidance/policy in paragraph 301, P9 4iii and P10. The 3 open spaces should be connected to facilitate movement of wildlife with a minimum 6.5m wide corridor to be planted and enhanced. By utilising the public open space buffer and/or 30m gap as required in the Berkswell NDP, this need not sffect the development capacity
Policy BC1 paragraph 2v is modified with additional wording 'including the linking of the 3 ecologically important areas with a wildlife corridor of at least 6.5 metres in width'
The supporting Illustrative Concept Master Plan BC1: Barratt’s Farm is modified to show the position of that wildlife corridor
