    2017 City of York Biodiversity Action Plan

    CITY OF YORK Local Biodiversity Action Plan 2017 City of York Local Biodiversity Action Plan - Executive Summary What is biodiversity and why is it important? Biodiversity is the variety of all species of plant and animal life on earth, and the places in which they live. Biodiversity has its own intrinsic value but is also provides us with a wide range of essential goods and services such as such as food, fresh water and clean air, natural flood and climate regulation and pollination of crops, but also less obvious services such as benefits to our health and wellbeing and providing a sense of place. We are experiencing global declines in biodiversity, and the goods and services which it provides are consistently undervalued. Efforts to protect and enhance biodiversity need to be significantly increased. The Biodiversity of the City of York The City of York area is a special place not only for its history, buildings and archaeology but also for its wildlife. York Minister is an 800 year old jewel in the historical crown of the city, but we also have our natural gems as well. York supports species and habitats which are of national, regional and local conservation importance including the endangered Tansy Beetle which until 2014 was known only to occur along stretches of the River Ouse around York and Selby; ancient flood meadows of which c.9-10% of the national resource occurs in York; populations of Otters and Water Voles on the River Ouse, River Foss and their tributaries; the country’s most northerly example of extensive lowland heath at Strensall Common; and internationally important populations of wetland birds in the Lower Derwent Valley.

    Making a sustainable community: life in Derwenthorpe, York, 2012–2018 by Deborah Quilgars, Alison Dyke, Alison Wallace and Sarah West This report presents the results of a six-year evaluation of Derwenthorpe, an urban extension of about 500 homes in York, developed by the Joseph Rowntree Housing Trust (JRHT) and David Wilson Homes. The research documented the extent to which it met its aims to create a socially and environmentally sustainable community ‘fit for the 21st century’. Making a sustainable community: life in Derwenthorpe, York, 2012– 2018 Deborah Quilgars, Alison Dyke, Alison Wallace and Sarah West This report presents the results of a six-year evaluation of Derwenthorpe, an urban extension of about 500 homes in York, developed by the Joseph Rowntree Housing Trust (JRHT) and David Wilson Homes. The research documented the extent to which it met its aims to create a socially and environmentally sustainable community ‘fit for the 21st century’. The research demonstrated that mainstream housing developers can successfully deliver sustainable homes and communities at scale, in particular delivering high-quality living environments. However, technical build issues and differential buy-in from residents means that environmental and social measures need to be built into the model as far as possible from the outset. The research involved an environmental survey and longitudinal qualitative interviews to document residents’ experiences over the period 2012–2018. It also compared Derwenthorpe with three other sustainable housing developments in England. Actions • Greater emphasis on the design, space standards and aesthetics of new developments should be incorporated into Government-level directives. • Housing providers must work with resident groups to set up inclusive governance structures to promote the long-term social sustainability of communities.

  • 1 Derwenthorpe

    1 Derwenthorpe

    Derwenthorpe – Vision to Reality This is the edited text of a talk given by Steven Burkeman to (mainly) residents of Derwenthorpe, on 11 October 2017 at the energy centre (aka the SSC) there. For ease of reading I have not included references/footnotes etc., but they are available on request. --- We moved to Derwenthorpe a couple of years ago, and while we love living here, balancing two hats has sometimes been challenging (there have been some awkward moments at parties). Today, while I’ve been advertised as a trustee, almost everything I want to say is in the public domain. I’m grateful to my friend, and house vendor, Paul Black, and to Richard, now Lord, Best for telling me about aspects of the early part of the Derwenthorpe story of which I wasn’t previously aware. Many thanks also to Frank and Liz Wilson, who live in Osbaldwick, and who gathered an amazing archive of material about the lead-up to Derwenthorpe -- some of it is laid out for you to look at afterwards. Which reminds me that of course, as residents Jane and I are ‘Johnnies-cum-lately’, moving in on 1st October 2015. There will surely be people here who know parts of the story which I don’t know, or who will spot things that I get wrong – my intention is to speak for about 25 minutes, so as to allow time for you to add to the story. To trace the beginnings of the vision for Derwenthorpe, you have to go back to 1904 when Joseph Rowntree wrote, in the context of the foundation of New Earswick: ‘I do not want to establish communities bearing the stamp of charity but rather of rightly ordered and self- governing communities’.
