Dog Fouling Not clearing up dog mess can result in large fines for owners. For information on dog fouling, fines for not clearing dog mess and how to report offenders click here. Tree Cutting & Felling There has been some concern expressed recently about tree cutting and felling. If the tree is in a conservation
area and is more than 7.5 cm in diameter measured 1 m from the ground, all proposed works to the tree MUST be notified
to Wychavon District Council. They will then have six weeks to decide whether to serve a tree preservation order on
the tree in question. For more information about Protected Trees and those within a Conservation Area (including the notification form)
click here. Just the main part of Elmley Castle village is within a conservation area. Bricklehampton and Netherton are not within a conservation area. To find out if your property is in a conservation area click here and enter your address. |
