Planning Policy Position for Net Zero Carbon Homes and Buildings in Greater Essex

Respondent: Colchester Natural History Society
While CNHS supports the overarching goals of the "Planning Policy Position for Net Zero Carbon Homes and Buildings in Greater Essex," it is crucial that the Local Plan reflects these objectives consistently across all decisions, especially in relation to natural spaces like Middlewick Ranges.
Only by aligning our local planning strategies with our environmental commitments can we hope to meet our targets and ensure a sustainable future for all residents. Please act to protect Middlewick Ranges Local Wildlife Site as a vital carbon sink and biodiversity hotspot; and use this current Local Plan Review as an opportunity to remove the threat and allocation of 1000 houses – and safeguard as Colchester City’s premier nature reserve for people and wildlife.
