The tree protection fencing and ground protection shall then remain securely in place throughout the entire course of development works.
Reason: To protect the designated Root Protection Area of retained trees from soil compaction, excavation and contamination damage, so as to ensure that the health and anchorage of the rooting systems are maintained. |

The approved landscape scheme shall then be implemented during the first planting season (November to March) following completion of development, and shall be maintained for a period of 5 years until satisfactorily established, with any losses replaced in accordance with the approved plans and specifications.
Reason: To ensure the satisfactory planting, aftercare and establishment of replacement trees in compensation for those that are being felled in the course of development, and to meet net biodiversity requirements. |
