Preston City Council leader Matthew Brown on sepsis, two week hospital stay and paramedics breaking down the doorReview: A visit to the Preston restaurant that’s Thai-ing up Lane EndsA developer cannot be forced to replace the mature trees it cut down during construction of three giant warehouses in Preston – in spite of initially promising to retain them.
The authority subsequently began enforcement action against the applicant over a failure to seek further approval for its detailed landscaping plans before work got under way. He contrasted them with those uprooted three years ago, which – at around 15 metres tall – would have served to at least partially screen the gargantuan grey warehouses that have since been built.
Alban Cassidy, the agent for the application, said his firm had not been advising the applicant when work was started before the necessary conditions – including approval of the landscaping plan – had been discharged. Cllr Daniel Guise asked why the decision to chop down the mature trees had been taken in the first place – but Alban Cassidy said he was unaware of the reason for the move.
The report stated that the officer had suggested “additions” that would help improve the scheme, but that these had “not been taken up by the applicant”.
