Chat text:

00:34:43 Wendy Thomson Stonehouse TC: Very interesting. I've got several questions!

00:38:06 Wendy Thomson Stonehouse TC: Sorry I can ask them at end

00:40:22 Jan Lund: I’m using the LandApp - interested to hear which mapping toll is recommended

00:40:55 Kirstin Rayner: South Cambs training session on this on Thursday. SCDC using the XL spreadsheet from DEFRA which must be completed for all planning applications.

00:41:18 Wendy Thomson Stonehouse TC: I know it's most probably out of the scope of this new requirement, but can councils do anything about residents turning driveways into concrete and putting artificial grass down thus losing plants for wildlife etc.

00:43:01 Kirstin Rayner: Sorry all qualifying planning applications

00:45:41 Cara Naden: This is when mapping and regular monitoring will be very helpful...

00:48:40 Graham Stoddart-Stones - Isle of Wight, Great Collaboration: We may need to calculate whether the loss of biodiversity from concreting a driveway is offset by the EV charging that goes on instead in that driveway??!

00:52:36 Cara Naden: Replying to "We may need to calcu..."

Hmm there are other benefits to not concreting driveways such as reducing flash flooding from water run off - and driveways can still support biodiversity and have EVs on them being charged by using permeable surfacing..

00:53:13 Warwick Webster: We have a County Council owned farm which has been out up by them in a Call for Sites for potential development. Any ideas on how we can use the legislation to oppose this at the selection of sites stage?

00:54:55 Cara Naden: Replying to "We may need to calcu..."

00:56:17 Carol Kambites: Sorry, I've got to go but I'll look forward to hearing the rest on the recording.

01:00:52 Warwick Webster: We are trying to put in TPOs on trees where we know there is a planning application.

01:01:10 andrew towlerton: Andrew. These who spoke at the conference from Uttlesford - Ann Howells Performance and Business Manager, Uttlesford

01:02:41 Graham Stoddart-Stones - Isle of Wight, Great Collaboration: Kirstin, if you pass your presentation on BNG to me, please, I will gladly send it out to all with the video etc from this banter session…..

This is how to register but understand awaiting guidance on when the register will be available

01:08:29 john fagan: Thanks, good event!

01:09:23 Wendy Thomson Stonehouse TC: I'm interested in saving playing fields from constant flooding!

01:10:12 Jan Lund: Will you send slides the from this to all participants? Missed the first half!

01:11:46 Wendy Thomson Stonehouse TC: Thank you everyone

00:38:48 Cara Naden: Hi @Graham Stoddart-Stones - Isle of Wight, Great Collaboration Somerset Council guidance on BNG

00:39:14 Garry Ford: This defra mapping tool might be a useful resource: Magic Map Application (defra.gov.uk)

00:50:35 Cara Naden: BBC News item Bristol City Council Local Plan bans artificial grass in new housing..

00:53:41 Andrew Maliphant:

01:06:06 Cara Naden: Here'sthe register -
