Adoption of Local Planning Policy LPP7 - Tree Retention

Published on Wednesday, 18 December 2024 at 2:33:53 PM

The Council at the December Ordinary Council Meeting resolved to adopt draft Local Planning Policy 7 - Tree Retention with modifications following the recent second round of community consultation that included the distribution of a FAQ information package to all residential households.
The policy seeks to prevent the removal or permanent damage to significant trees on private land and, by doing so, retain as far as practical the existing urban tree canopy cover that contributes to the high amenity of the Shire.
