Why we consulted
In alignment with actions contained within our local Public Service Board Well-being Plan, the development of this draft Strategy is designed to embed a Green and Blue Infrastructure approach to spatial planning which is centred on ensuring the provision of public goods for future generations, multifunctionality, and promoting the use of Nature-based Solutions (NbS), wherever appropriate.
In essence, it is the acknowledgement that our natural and semi-natural resources should be regarded as important ‘infrastructure’ just like built features, and that they will only continue to benefit us if we proactively plan, invest in, and manage them to ensure they are used sustainably.
Jointly funded by the UK Government’s Shared Prosperity Fund and Carmarthenshire County Council, Carmarthenshire residents and interested parties are invited to comment on the Draft Green and Blue Infrastructure Strategy.
