Enhancing Biodiversity Across The West Midlands

Enhancing Biodiversity Across the West Midlands sets out to demonstrate, to local planning authorities, how Local Opportunity Mapping for biodiversity in the West Midlands will make a major contribution to achieving national and regional policy objectives and statutory requirements for enhancing biodiversity. The maintenance and enhancement of biodiversity is of fundamental importance because it is:
 
  • an integral part of sustainable development
  • an essential component of improving quality of life
  • critical to our future health and well being
  • important for economic development and regeneration
  • an expectation of government policy 
  • a statutory obligation
 
The guidance outlines how the regional opportunity map should be used in the development of local opportunity maps. It also makes it clear that local opportunity mapping is key to the spatial representation of regional priorities and that these local maps need to feed into a number local documents.
