The
Committee considered the report of the Head of Planning and
Development concerning TPO No. 5017/2017 which was made to replace
TPO No. 5002/2017. It was noted
that:
·
TPO No. 5002/2017 was made to protect woodland,
including mature oaks, on land at Lodge Close, The Street,
Ulcombe in response to requests from
the Parish Council following concerns raised by residents about
recent activity in the woodland.
·
It was understood that the site had changed hands
and that a fishing consortium was involved with the recent activity
on the site.
·
Whilst no formal objection had been received to the
making of TPO No. 5017/2017, a detailed objection was received to
TPO No. 5002/2017 from the current and previous owners of the
site.
·
Given the uncertainty surrounding operations on the
site, it was recommended that the woodland should continue to be
protected by a TPO.
RESOLVED: That TPO
No. 5017/2017 be confirmed without
modification.
