Minutes:

The Committee considered the report of the Head of Development Management. It was noted that since the submission of this application, Trees T1 (Ash) and T2 (Ash) had both died. In the interests of safety, they were made subject to a 5-day exemption notice under 23/502937/TDD for removal. Consequently, the removal of these trees did not require consideration as part of this application.

RESOLVED: That consent be granted subject to the conditions and informatives set out in the report.
