Habitats Regulation Assessment (North Meadow SAC)

New developments in the Borough have the potential to impact on internationally important biodiversity sites (habitat sites) in particular the North Meadow and Clattinger Farm Special Area of Conservation (SAC).

We can only permit that project or proposal, for example, approve a planning application, if we are certain that it will not lead to a “likely significant effect” (interpreted as any negative effect, other than those that are completely insignificant) on the special biodiversity of the SAC.

The Habitat Regulations is a complex area of planning. Further information on North Meadow and Clattinger Farm and what applicants need to do can be found on the habitats, ecology and bio-diversity webpage.
