Perth & Kinross Council are asking where Nature Networks should be across the area, and where developers can deliver biodiversity enhancement.

Biodiversity enhancement is a new requirement for most developments in national planning policy, as are Nature Networks - corridors of nature rich space - for each Council. 

A Perth and Kinross Council consultation continues until 18 August and is open to everyone. As well as hearing from citizens and developers, the Council would particularly like to hear from landowners who have or are carrying out nature restoration on their land who see the benefit of connecting with other similar projects.
