  • Braunton Burrows SAC Mitigation Strategy (March 2021)
    North Devon Council Report Date: 17 May 2021 Topic: Braunton Burrows Special Area of Conservation Visitor Impact Strategy Report by: Sustainability Officer 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. The purpose of this report is to present the finalised Visitor Mitigation Strategy for Braunton Burrows Special Area of Conservation (SAC). An interim mitigation strategy and developer contribution rate of £100 per unit was approved by Strategy and Resources Committee on 1st July 2019. 1.2. The report seeks approval to increase the developer contribution rate to £190 per unit and to begin implementation of the Strategy’s recommendations. The principal deliverable of the Strategy is a Christie Estates appointed part-time Engagement Officer to deliver the Strategy in partnership with the Council and Natural England. 1.3. Evidence produced since the adoption of the North Devon and Torridge Local Plan (the “Local Plan”) concludes that, as a result of increasing visitor pressure, adverse effects on the integrity of the SAC cannot be ruled out and development which contributes to harm of the SAC should not be granted without appropriate mitigation measures being in place. 1.4. Natural England has advised that a formal mitigation strategy must be produced to provide certainty on what mitigation measures are required and the cost of delivery. 1.5. The Braunton Burrows SAC Visitor Mitigation Strategy has now been finalised in consultation with Natural England and Christie Estates, and the Council is responsible for ensuring the successful delivery of the Strategy. In order to monitor the delivery of the strategic objectives, periodic visitor behaviour surveys and habitat condition surveys are costed within the Strategy.
