Description

Medway Council wishes to appoint an experience and professional consultant to assess the extent and nature of the in-direct impacts of residential, employment, community and commercial development on the Chattenden Woods and Lodge Hill SSSI, with particular reference to the breeding nightingale population. We also need to understand the effectiveness of cat-predation mitigation measures, such as fencing proposed at Deangate and Chattenden Barracks, as well as access management measures to mitigate potential recreational pressure as detailed through the CEIA work and if this would be acceptable in planning terms.

Medway Council need to develop an evidence-based appropriate strategy/policy approach for the avoidance and mitigation of impacts arising from new proposed development for Nightingale management linked to an avoidance, mitigation, and compensation policy on land north of the A228 (Chattenden/Lodge Hill/Deangate).
