BD9 Biodiversity and tree planting

The council will expect developers to plant trees where appropriate and will itself continue to plant appropriate trees in suitable locations. Normally native species (approximately 70 native tree type species and hybrids) that maximise their value to biodiversity should be planted. If felling is necessary, trees must be replaced with other suitable species, normally native species that will benefit biodiversity. Newly planted trees must be nurtured until well-established and subsequently maintained.
