Having looked at the information presented in the consultation, this policy appears to propose an extension to the Runcton Horticultural Development Needs on top of the East of the City Wildlife Corridor. Neither Policy E3 addressing Horticultural Need, nor indeed Policy N4 Strategic Wildlife Corridors, seem to address how these two policies have the opportunity to interact positively for the benefit of biodiversity. We would suggest that this policy more clearly reflects that it overlays a Wildlife Corridor and as such must recognise the requirements of policy NE 4 Strategic Wildlife Corridors when proceeding.
