This work has therefore helped to raise awareness amongst operating authorities, of biodiversity opportunities linked to the implementation of SMP policies. It is also the intention that taking such an approach will integrate shoreline management with the long term evolution of the coast and help deliver the targets set out in the UK Biodiversity Action Plan. In addition, Defra High Level Target 4 for Flood and Coastal Defence on biodiversity requires all operating authorities (coastal local authorities and the Environment Agency), to take account of biodiversity, as detailed below: Target 4 - Biodiversity By when By whom A.

  • Mevagissey Parish Neighbourhood Development Plan
    Mevagissey Parish Neighbourhood Development Plan Picture Copyright Sarah Olson, New York, www.sarah-olson.com Plan for the Period 2017 - 2032 Issue 2.0 Mevagissey Neighbourhood Development Plan February 2018 Issue 2.0 February 2018 1 Introduction Those who know Mevagissey would describe it as the classic working Cornish fishing port which is active all year round. It stands alone, untouched and geographically distinct from nearby conurbations. The village church dates from the thirteenth century and the streets have a medieval layout. History has it that Mevagissey was a centre for smuggling in the eighteenth century, building fast cutters for the smugglers and the revenue men alike. The port has an inner harbour which dries out between tides and a deeper outer harbour. A large and growing number of fishing boats work from the harbour which is surrounded by a conservation area largely consisting of ancient fishermen's cottages, renovated fish processing buildings and the grander houses of one-time merchants. The harbour hosts a boat-builder and repair yard, an aquarium and a history museum. The permanent population of Mevagissey has fallen slightly over the last 200 years but since 1930, the buildings in the village have more than doubled. This can be accounted for by lower densities of family occupation, but more significantly to improved mobility in the latter 20th century giving rise to a demand for second homes and as a retirement destination. Greater mobility has, however, not greatly influenced the employment prospects either in Mevagissey or in Cornwall as a whole, so living standards among residents deny many of them the opportunity to aspire to home ownership within the village.
