RESOLVED THAT:
 

1.   
the principle of continued co-operation
on Biodiversity Net Gain through the Gloucestershire Nature and
Climate Fund be approved. Whilst it will not be the only option
available to developers unable to provide the required minimum 10%
biodiversity uplift on-site, GNCF is designed to provide a robust
off-site option for retaining developer investment in BNG within
the county;

 

2.   
authority is delegated to the Cabinet
member for Climate Emergency to sign the MoU on behalf of the authority.
