Planning application S24/2108 came in as a short deadline application.  This application was sent to all Planning Councillors as a round robin.  The comment below was agreed by 5 of the 6 Councillors:
 
Deeping St James Parish Council object to the works (apart from T1, which is to be reduced) given the high public amenity value of  trees T2-T6 individually and the absence of a more selective management approach to tree works . The trees collectively have high visual value in this conservation area and the group T3-T6 could be the subject of a Group Tree Preservation Order.
 
Full Council resolutions
