Minutes:
The Committee
considered the report of the Head of Planning and Development
concerning Tree Preservation Order No. 5052/2015 which was made to
protect one Lime tree and one Sycamore tree located in the grounds
of Danefield Court, Church Lane,
Bearsted, a site lying within the
Bearsted (Holy Cross) conservation
area.
It was noted that the
making of the Tree Preservation Order was considered to be an
appropriate response to proposed pollarding works to the trees
which would leave very little foliage, create very large topping
wounds on the main stems and have a significant detrimental effect
on the contribution that the trees made to amenity and local
landscape quality. An objection to the
making of the Tree Preservation Order had been received from the
Danefield Court Residents’
Association. However, it was considered
that the grounds for objection did not raise any issues or provide
any new evidence to suggest that it was inappropriate to make the
trees the subject of a Tree Preservation Order or that they should
not continue to benefit from ongoing protection.
Mrs
Horne of the Danefield Court
Residents’ Association and Mrs Trodd, an individual objector, addressed the
meeting.
RESOLVED: That Tree Preservation Order No. 5052/2015
be confirmed without
modification.
