Environment

Enhance our special environment and mitigate against any adverse impacts of growth.

Growth will be carefully managed in order to minimise the contributors to climate change.  High standards of design will be promoted to reduce, greenhouse gasses, make best use of renewable energy sources and to improve energy efficiency.

Preference will be given to locations where services, employment, shops, schools and recreation are accessible by walking, cycling and public transport to reduce the need to travel, especially by car.
