Working in the strategic land sector.
For clients considering acquiring land, or progressing with a project within a landholding, we offer a highly tailored scoping service. We identify potential ecological showstoppers, the implications of statutory designated sites, habitats of conservation significance and the potential for protected or priority species.
A constraints plan can also be produced, highlighting any features within the site and local landscape we consider may need further surveys or assessments.
Our forward-thinking approach takes recent changes in the industry into account such as ensuring compliance with the Environment Bill and Biodiversity Net Gain requirements. This future proofs strategic projects and provides an invaluable framework for later applications to work from.
Our case-by-case consideration of developers’ obligations following allocation means the ecology of schemes will be practical and pragmatic to implement, as well delivering biodiversity benefits. As such, our expert advice will continue to pay dividends long after the initial project is finished.
