  • Avon Gorge and Downs Wildlife Project Update (Mandy Leivers)
    Agenda item: Avon Gorge and Downs Wildlife Project Annual Report 2019 Officers Presenting Report: Becky Belfin Nature Conservation Officer and Mandy Leivers, Avon Gorge and Downs Biodiversity Education Manager Context The Avon Gorge and Downs Wildlife Project was launched on 23rd October 1999. It is a partnership of Bristol City Council, the Downs Committee, Merchant Venturers, Bristol Zoo Gardens, Natural England, the University of Bristol, and Bristol Zoological Society. We also work with the National Trust, Forestry Commission and other landowners on the North Somerset side of the Gorge, as well as the Friends of the Downs and Avon Gorge. The aim of the project is 'to secure the future of the outstanding wildlife interest of the Avon Gorge, Clifton Down, Durdham Down and Leigh Woods, as well as raising awareness and understanding of this unique location and its importance for people and wildlife’. Annual Review This report provides a review of progress and key achievements of the Avon Gorge & Downs Wildlife Project between January and December 2019. Habitat Management Works Throughout the Avon Gorge and Downs The winter conservation works on the Bristol side of the Gorge continue to focus on the removal of scrub and invasive species, in order to protect the rocky limestone outcrops, and restore them back to species-rich grassland. This work is primarily carried out by specialist rope access contractors, due to the tricky terrain. In the Gully, the goats are still controlling the regrowth of scrubby species, but the reduction in numbers of the goats over the last few years now needs to be addressed to ensure this good work continues.

  • Leicester's Green Infrastructure Strategy
    LEICESTER GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE STRATEGY 2015-2025 EVIDENCE BASE, ACTIONS AND OPPORTUNITIES 1 | P a g e FOREWORD This framework sets out the strategic vision for our green sites in Leicester and the ways in which they can be created, managed and maintained to provide maximum benefits to the people who live, work or visit Leicester. The actions are supported by an evidence base of data and information which recognise and prioritise key areas where resources can be focussed to develop high quality green infrastructure (GI) into our new and existing communities. By placing the framework within the planning system it is possible to provide the key tools needed to secure these areas and design them to provide multi- functional green space. Improvements to established green space and creating new sites to surround built development will provide an accessible and natural green network. These areas will be capable of supporting a range of functions which include landscaping/public amenity, recreation, flood control, safer access routes, cooler areas to combat predicted climate change and places for wildlife. These functions give rise to a range of environmental and quality of life benefits which include providing attractive and distinctive places to live, work and play; improving public health, facilitating access and encouraging sustainable transport as well as offering an environment to support wildlife. Placing a monetary value on these benefits is difficult, but many have potential to deliver significant economic value by increasing the attractiveness of a neighbourhood for businesses and employers, encouraging tourism and associated revenue, reducing health care costs and maintenance or clean-up costs from flooding.

  • URBAN LIVING SPD Making Successful Places at Higher Densities
    Adopted November 2018 URBAN LIVING SPD Making successful places at higher densities Growth and Regeneration Foreword We are committed to make the most of the development land available in the city to support the significant increase in new-and-affordable homes and infrastructure we desperately need. In the last 20 years, there has been a dramatic shift with people returning to live in or close to the city centre. This urban renaissance has led to apartment living being commonplace in Bristol. The more successful schemes combine homes with cafes, shops, community uses and workplaces to create vibrant spaces with a high quality public realm. With this renewed appetite amongst developers to build at higher densities, including tall buildings, it is important that we strengthen our planning guidance to ensure that we learn from successful places and don’t repeat any mistakes from the past. We want to ensure that future development of the city is inclusive by design, where neighbourhoods are not Credits isolated but interconnected so that varied social, economic and cultural opportunities are This document has been prepared by the City Design Group at Bristol accessible to all. Whilst tall buildings are one way of potentially optimising densities, they City Council. aren’t the only way, and aren’t appropriate in all circumstances. I’d like to thank the citizens, business professionals, community representatives, planning Conceptual and Graphic Design © agents, and architects who have helped shape this Urban Living Supplementary Planning City Design Group Document (SPD).

INTRODUCTION The environment is a major determinant of the health and wellbeing of the population1 and the planning system has a major influence on the environment. As the “Joint Strategic Needs Assessment of Health and Wellbeing in Bristol” (2012 strategic summary, page 8) states: “…a healthier city will not come just from individual actions, but needs an integrated approach to planning the built environment to create a supportive environment and infrastructure for a Healthy City. This needs to focus on areas with poor health outcomes and inequalities (eg Inner City or South Bristol) and to take account of the health impact of living in the city in the future, eg: improving access to green spaces and to shops selling healthy food, as well as incorporating sustainability issues for a healthier future.” Bristol Local Plan policy DM14 aims to ensure that the impact on health and wellbeing, including health inequalities is considered from the outset in the determination of planning applications and requires systematic health impact assessments (HIA) to be undertaken for larger proposals (those that are defined as ‘super’ major developments under the Bristol Planning Protocol).
