Minutes:
The
Committee considered the report of the Head of Planning and
Development concerning Tree Preservation Order No. 5015/2017 which
was made to protect woodland on a piece of land to the west of
Trapham Road, Maidstone. It was noted that:
·
Objections to the Tree Preservation Order and
representations in support of the making of Tree Preservation
Orders on this site had been received.
·
It was considered that objections relating to the
accuracy of the Tree Preservation Order boundaries had now been
addressed and that the current Order accurately reflected the
woodland tree cover present. A woodland designation was considered
to be the most appropriate even though the woodland did not
resemble natural unmanaged woodland across the whole site due to
various gardening activities on some plots. The woodland remained vulnerable to development
pressure, and it was considered expedient to continue to control
tree works on the site.
RESOLVED: That
Tree Preservation Order No. 5015/2017 be
confirmed without modification.
