  • Environmental Aspects of the Mayor's Planning Decisions
    Playing Fields Investigation Rapporteur’s Foreword Having played football and cricket on many of London's playing fields during my school, college and now my adult life, l know too well the controversies surrounding the loss of playing fields. Two key things struck me during our inquiry. Not enough use is made of the planning framework to protect our playing fields in London, and the sporting communities who regularly using them are not recognised as custodians of green spaces of London. I hope this report can go some way to preserving London’s playing fields, increasing access to, and use of them. Our report should be seen as a reference guide for all those who are working to maintain and develop playing fields. In it we: • Attempt to learn the lessons of recent loss of playing fields. • Map the nature of the growing relationship between artificial turf pitches (ATPs ) and grass playing fields, so as to find innovative approaches to fund their long term future; and • Set up baseline data and maps on playing fields availability across London beyond just school ones, covering others in the rest of the public sector and private ones which will help draw a line under the issue. Like many off-side decisions in football, it’s often not worth looking back on the ref’s decision but lets look ahead instead. And the best way to do this will be to have an annual check on where we are with this head count of playing fields in 2006. Hopefully this way we can maintain the 1500 playing fields we have identified for the future use of Londoners in the lead up to and beyond the Olympic & Paralympics in 2012.

  • Good Practice Guide – Biodiversity
    Good Practice Guide – Biodiversity GOOD PRACTICE GUIDE BIODIVERSITY & THE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS IN KINGSTON UPON THAMES 1 Good Practice Guide – Biodiversity TABLE OF CONTENTS 1 Introduction 1 Biodiversity in Kingston _ 2 ​ ​ ​ Nature Conservation Sites in Kingston 3 ​ ​ 2 Legislation that Covers Biodiversity 5 3 Guidance for Planners – Applying the Principles 9 4 Guidance for Developers 11 Stage 1: Surveys and information gathering 11 Stage 2: Design Stage 19 ​ Stage 3: Construction 23 2 Good Practice Guide – Biodiversity 1. INTRODUCTION PURPOSE OF THE DOCUMENT Biodiversity is the variety of life on earth. The biodiversity of a site or locality is the range of species found there, for example an urban park includes the familiar biodiversity of the blackbird and robin, ducks, butterflies and the trees and grass, as well as many hundreds of species of smaller, more elusive and less familiar organisms such as bats, hoverflies, molluscs and fungi. On the other hand, a site that is identified for nature conservation has habitats that support a range of specific species associated with it, not found beyond the habitat. New developments, large and small, can have a significant effect on Kingston’s wildlife and on the ability of people to experience and enjoy nature. Planners and developers should aim to protect and enhance biodiversity in its widest sense, from the sourcing of construction material to the localised impact on nationally threatened species. Even where there are no significant habitats or protected species present on a site, biodiversity is still an important consideration. All new development should contribute to the enhancement of biodiversity and create habitat wherever possible, from small measures such as installation of a nest box to more comprehensive actions such as design of a fully integrated ecological landscape.
