Add the requirement for features for wildlife to be integrated into the built environment. Many species such as Swifts and House Martins are dependent on buildings for reproduction. It is important that new builds ensure continued access to this resource. Add another policy to PNP 5:
5.4 New developments must be permeable to biodiversity by providing linking habitats around or through the site. Integrated features for wildlife e.g. Swift, House Martin and bat boxes should be incorporated into all suitable buildings.
