DM 23: Streetside Greenness and Forecourt Greenery

Proposals for the provision of substantial hard surfacing of forecourts and front gardens should respect the character of the area and, where appropriate, incorporate a scheme of soft landscaping.

The Council will undertake and encourage new planting of street trees and shrubs, by legal agreement if necessary, and provide, restore and/or maintain grass verges on public and private streets.

Proposals that fail to make appropriate provision for hard and soft landscaping of forecourts, or which fail to contribute to streetside greenery where required, will be refused.
