Abstract
Aims to provide guidance on how to maximise the opportunities for biodiversity in the planning and design of sustainable communities. Takes the user through the design process, presenting a toolkit of best practice that can be tailored according to the scale of the development opportunity. The guide has been tailored to respond to the scale and form of development being brought forward in response to the Government's Sustainable Communities Plan. Included within the guide are a number of examples of 'in-progress' schemes promoted by the Communities Plan.
