Mayfield owl alert
Update 4th May: the West Sussex County Times has elicited some (more) ecowibble from Mayfield Market Towns:
As part of any planning application we would be required to carry out a number of ecological assessments to ensure that development does not pose any threat or danger to protected wildlife. We have already employed ecologists to carry out preliminary studies, and the next stage will carry out in depth ecological studies which will of course include surveying birds and other wildlife in the area. This ensures that the development can be designed so that it protects areas with existing wildlife habitat.
The rest is here.
