Local Plan 2040 Draft Plan - Strategy options and draft policies consultation

Representation ID: 5286

Received: 03/09/2021

Respondent: Mr Jonathan Pelham

Representation Summary:

The council should prioritize the creation of hedgerows in any development over the use of fencing.
Especially if edible planting is used in places.
Maintenance is an ongoing cost but in exchange the citizens will have a delightful site and also be more personally engaged with their environment through wildlife diversity and local foraging opportunity.
