OS5 GREENING THE BOROUGH
The council will seek to enhance biodiversity and green infrastructure in the borough by:
- maximising the provision of gardens, garden space and soft landscaping, seeking green or brown roofs and other planting as part of new development;
- protecting back, front and side gardens from new development and encouraging planting in both back and front gardens;
- seeking to prevent removal or mutilation of protected trees;
- seeking retention of existing trees and provision of new trees on development sites; and
- adding to the greening of streets and the public realm;
- making Tree Preservation Orders where justified in the interests of amenity.
