Report on protocol for handling of tree work applications
Assistant Town Clerk
20th November 2014
For Planning Committee 24th November 2014
At the Planning Committee meeting held on 10th November 2014 the issue of tree work applications
being determined by Sevenoaks District Council before Sevenoaks Town Council members had the
opportunity to consider or make a recommendation on the application was raised.
Sevenoaks District Council has no statutory duty to serve notice or consult with stakeholders for tree
work applications, but notifies the Town Council as a matter of courtesy. More recently tree work
applications have had a very tight turn around for decisions, in some cases only a matter of 2-3 days,
which does not allow the Town Council any opportunity to make meaningful comment.
It is suggested that a modification is made to the Town Council’s protocol for the handling of tree
work applications to maximise the opportunity to object to unreasonable applications, suggested
protocol as follows:
1. All Town Councillors are sent Sevenoaks District Council’s weekly list by email as soon as it
arrives, typically AM on Thursdays
2. It is the responsibility of ward Councillors to review the list and raise any objections to a tree
work application with the Chairman and Clerk
3. Any representation will be arranged under Chairman’s action and reported back to the next
Planning Committee meeting or Full Council if sooner
It should be noted there is still no statutory requirement for Sevenoaks District Council to take on
board any objections made.
For clarity a recommendation to be made to Council that the Standing orders for the Planning
Committee be updated to explicitly allow Chairman’s Action for tree work applications, wording as
follows:
The Chairman of the Committee or in his/her absence the Vice Chairman in consultation with another
Committee member (to be a ward member for the site concerned) and the Town Clerk to have
executive powers to make observations to the Local Planning Authority in respect of Tree Work
applications (both Conservation Area and Tree Preservation Order) which the Town Council is notified
of in order to maximise the opportunity to object to inappropriate works prior to a determination
being reached by the Local Planning Authority.
Where this executive power has been exercised the observations made to the Local Planning
Authority are to be reported to the next meeting of the Planning Committee or direct to the need
meeting of the Town Council if sooner.
Recommendations:
1. Updated protocol for handling of tree work applications outlined above be adopted
2. A recommendation be put to Council that the Standing Orders for the Planning Committee
be updated as outlined above
3. A letter be sent to Richard Morris (CCed to Portfolio Holder for Local Planning and
Environment) requesting that SDC implement a 1 week grace period before making a
determination on tree work applications to allow an opportunity for the Town Council /
Local Residents to object to applications.

Subject re: Highways and Transportation Survey 2014
Dear Representative,
I would welcome your help in providing me with your feedback on the highways and transportation service we
deliver in your community.
We are working hard, in difficult financial times, to ensure we focus on the important services and to allow me to
make some decisions on our future service improvements. I would be grateful if you could complete this survey
about highways and transportation issues in Kent.
The deadline for completed questionnaires is: Fri 19th December
The survey questions are around satisfaction with the condition of roads, pavements, street lighting and drainage,
plus issues relating to highway safety and levels of congestion.
This survey is part of an annual programme of surveys to gain the views of the local community on the delivery of
highway and transportation services in Kent, and is the ninth year that we have consulted with Parish and Town
Councils.
In order to get a rounded perspective, the survey is also being conducted with County Members along with a
representative sample of around 1,200 residents across the County (via a door-to-door survey starting Sat 15th
November).
We would like you to respond to this questionnaire on behalf of your community taking into account what you think
are the views of the people you represent. It does not matter whether you don't particularly hold strong views, or
whether your views are positive or negative - all opinions count.
There are a number of ways you can take part in the survey:

A Word document (attached)

Online questionnaire via the following link:
https://kentcc.firmstep.com/default.aspx/RenderForm/?F.Name=tYU1AkhRcJ4&HideAll=1

Paper copy – please contact Iain Norman (details below) who will then send you a paper version.
Results from the survey will be used to help us to continue to prioritize and shape the service we provide, and all
your answers will remain entirely confidential. The survey results for 2013 are published on the KCC website as
will the 2014 report.
If you have any problems or queries about issues in this survey, please contact: Iain Norman, Highways,
Transportation & Waste, Business Team, 1st floor, Invicta House, Maidstone, Kent, ME14 1XX on Tel: 03000
411657 or email: [email protected]

along with a representative sample of around 1,200 residents across the County (via a door-todoor survey starting Sat 15th November).
We would like you to respond to this questionnaire on behalf of your community taking into
account what you think are the views of the people you represent. It does not matter whether you
don't particularly hold strong views, or whether your views are positive or negative - all opinions
count.
There are a number of ways you can take part in the survey:




published on the KCC website as will the 2014 report.

times to enable people to plan their trips. This means we will identify and

unreliability:

Section 4 – Keeping road users as safe as possible
A key action for Kent County Council is to keep road users as safe as

campaigns, education programmes and also the delivery of safety
engineering measures at sites which have a history of road traffic
collisions.
Q22 Please can you list one site (i.e. road or junction) which in your
opinion could be made safer:
SITE:
Road name or junction:
Town or village name:
Who this road or junction is a safety issue for? (i.e. bike, pedestrian,
lorry, horse, car etc.):
What safety improvement do they think would help or what safety issue
should KCC address?:
12
Section 5 – Improving road safety in Kent using safety
cameras
Safety cameras (sometimes known in the media as speed cameras) are
installed AS A LAST RESORT and EVEN THEN strict guidelines have to
be met.
In the case of the FIXED safety cameras, there has to have been
3 people killed or seriously injured within a 1.5 kilometre stretch of road
within the previous 3 years or for MOBILE safety cameras which are
operated from vans - there has to have been 1 person killed or seriously
injured within a 5 kilometre stretch of road within the previous 3 years.

roads safer across Kent?

Development:
Part demolition of front boundary wall to allow access to new garage
and the sub division of the land and building of a new residence.
The current application on this site is due to be considered at the meeting of the
Development Control Committee at the Council Chamber, Sevenoaks District Council
Offices, Argyle Road, Sevenoaks, Kent, TN13 1HG on 27th November 2014 at 7.00 pm.
The Council operates a system of public speaking at meetings of the Committee. An
electronic version of the “Speaking on Planning Applications” leaflet is available via the
Council’s Website, www.sevenoaks.gov.uk. Alternatively, a paper copy of this leaflet can
be obtained from the Planning Reception at Sevenoaks District Council Offices.
If a representative from the Parish/Town Council would like to speak on the application,
please register your interest with the Council’s Contact Centre on 01732 227000, who
can also answer any questions you may have regarding the public speaking procedure.
You need to register your interest by 5pm on the day of the meeting at the latest. Only
one person can be registered. However, in the case of deferred applications being
reconsidered by the Committee, further representations will not normally be heard at the
meeting.
Once you have registered to speak, if you wish to show any photographs or plans (no
more than three), these must be submitted electronically to the Development Control
Team By the end of the day BEFORE the meeting date (email:

time will be rejected. Any photomontages or other visualisations of the appearance of
the development will only be accepted if they are accompanied by a statement showing
how they have been created based on the application plans.
Copies of the committee agenda, including the report relevant to this application, will be
available in reception on the night of the meeting. Alternatively a copy of the report can
be obtained from the Democratic Services Team, 5 working days before the committee
date, subject to normal planning copying charges. If you wish you can view and

Sevenoaks Town Council recommended refusal on the following grounds:
1.The proposal represents a cramped form of development which will result in a lack of amenity
for future occupants including insufficient outside space and lighting
2.Overdevelopment of the site
3.The proposal is out of keeping with the character of the conservation area due to the insufficient
outdoor amenity space
