Minutes:

A representative of the Director of Place Management submitted a report (copies of which had been circulated) detailing an objection received to a proposed Tree Preservation Order at 47 Gillbent Road, Cheadle Hulme.

 

The following comments were made/ issues raised:-

 

·       Visually, the tree did not appear to make a significant contribution to the wider streetscene within which it sat.

·       There remained a public benefit to trees whether they were worthy of protection or not, and the policy of the Council was to replant as many trees as possible in respect of those trees within its control.

·       It was confirmed that following queries raised as part of the progression of this tree preservation order, the Council now undertook assessments using the most current guidance.

 

RESOLVED – That the Order be not confirmed.
