Request

Which officer at the council is responsible for biodiversity net gain and should be contacted about landowner and developer s106 agreements securing BNG? Does the council have a template for an offsite biodiversity gain site section 106 agreement and if so could a link to this be provided?

Response

There is not one officer responsible for Biodiversity Net Gain.We have ecologists and case officers within the Development Management Team involved in these matters.

If a landowner is looking to deal with the requirements of a S106 agreement, they need to contact the case officer for the application.

There is not a specific template as each S106 is dealt with on its own merits.
