New wildlife habitats are to be created in Doncaster to offset losses due to new developments.
'Exciting project'
It comes as a new law, set to come into effect in November, states that most developments must result in a 10% biodiversity net gain.and said everyone will live within 15 minutes' walk of a green space or water under its plans to restore nature. City of Doncaster Council also supported potential borrowing of up to £1m from its reserves to begin the Red House Farm project.
Mark Houlbrook, cabinet member for sustainability and waste, said: "This is an exciting project which will see a significant area of wildflower grassland, species-rich scrubland and woodland created right at the centre of Doncaster's green heart. "This will be the first of several such sites for Doncaster and I am determined to see the benefits spread further afield so all our communities have enhanced opportunities for access to green space and to connect with nature."
