Make Tree Preservation Order – Land at Cliftonville, Stepshort, Belton – Mixed Species, 5x Apple, 1x Whitebeam, 1 x Cherry, 1 x Lawson Cypress, 1 x Paper Birch, 1 x Copper Beech, 1 x Lombard Poplar (G1)

Review of TPO officer report detailing location, amenity value and perceived threat to the group of trees. 

The officer report, following assessment and recommendations of the Arboricultural Officer confirms that the group of trees have the public amenity value and a perceived threat to their potential loss. As such, their protection is warranted under Section 198 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990.

Through the officer report’s assessment, the alternative option not to protect the group of trees has been discounted given the public amenity value, and perceived  threat to their potential loss or damage.

To be undertaken with landowners, agent, neighbours, and relevant ward members upon making the Tree Preservation Order
