Special provisions relating to tree preservation orders
Proposals for the making of tree preservation orders (TPOs) often attract local interest in the particular area where the Order is being considered. The Council’s Constitution delegates the making of TPOs to the Corporate Director Economic Development and Corporate Director Governance unless there are objections, in which case it must be referred to the Development Control Committee for confirmation. Where this arises, the Council allows members of the public, who wish to speak in opposition to a TPO being made and also anyone in favour of the Order, to be given the opportunity to speak at the Committee.
Only TPOs with objections are referred to Committee. Supporters of the TPO do have the right to speak at the Committee. Arrangements for giving notice of wish to speak on a proposed TPO are set out under “How do I register my interest in speaking?”
Information about dates of and papers for meetings of the Development Control Committee are available on this website.
