Policy ENV4 – Provision, Retention and Protection of Trees, Woodlands and Hedges

Part 5 of the policy states that “Tree Preservation Orders will be used to protect individual(s) or groups of trees that contribute to the visual amenity and / or the character of an area and that are under threat of damage or removal”. Guidance on the use of TPO’s is set out in the National Planning Practice Guidance. It should not be repeated in Local Planning policies.
