BI3/H - I wish to object to this plan.
Most of the area is of mature mixed conifer trees and part scrub. While large conifer plantations have the right environment for specialist birds and red squirrels, this plot is too small, but the trees in general provide oxygen and carbon which helps the air quality of the area.
The site though can be homes for bats and birds.
Scrub in itself has great wildlife value.
If housing is allowed as many trees as possible should remain and housing numbers reduced.
