12 What we found from using the toolkit Design, design, design! (Not location, location, location ) Nowhere incapable of delivering net benefits (i.e. had both low minimum and maximum scores) The sites that had a low minimum (i.e. potential to significantly damage ecosystem services) also had a high positive (potential to enhance) Some sites were performing well below what was possible in terms of delivering benefits substantial scope for enhancement through design And some sites proposed designs that should deliver positive results as they are but could be further improved
13 Benefits of the toolkit Quantitative / externally developed approach Testing both the location and design of development Start of a process Site assessment Allocation of sites Site based policies Pre-application discussions Evaluating planning applications
