Policy EN3: Biodiversity and Geodiversity

Representation ID: 11437

Received: 12/12/2025

Respondent: Tiptree Parish Council

Representation Summary:

The policy should reference the need for independent ecological surveys on land with a high biodiversity so that a high level assessment can be made before engaging with the applicant to resolve ecological matters.

Full text:

Ecological surveys, especially on sites where there appears to be a high biodiversity, should in the first instance be independent of the developer. NPPF paragraph 39 says ‘LPAs should …. work proactively with applicants to secure developments that will improve the…. environmental conditions of the area.’ There is clearly the need for an initial high level assessment to ensure the proposal complies with LP policies and has the potential to improve the environmental conditions of the area, before any approach to the applicant. If EN3 requires the avoidance of the site, it is clearly not appropriate to engage with the applicant to seek to resolve the ecological matters.
