Object to AL6 due to conflict with Policy S26 Natural Environment.
This is a rich biodiverse area for wildlife, I've seen many species here that I've not seen elsewhere in Apuldram. It is good habitat for water voles, the Lavant flows all year and there is little human disturbance. The wildlife areas and ditch systems provide supporting habitat for Chichester Harbour AONB and should not be built on.
Most of the rest of AL6 is intensively farmed productive farmland which should be kept in production and not built on and lost forever
AL6/S26 This (SU846038) is a rich biodiverse area for wildlife, I've seen many species here that I've not seen elsewhere in Apuldram (including Scorpion fly, conehead, azure damselfly, Parhelophilus, Cercopsis and Gymnosoma Ladybird fly). It is good habitat for water voles, the Lavant flows all year and there is little human disturbance. The wildlife areas and ditch systems provide supporting habitat for Chichester Harbour AONB and should not be built on.
