      • Debby alerted us to a resident bulldozing Beach\/shingle land between Wellington Parade and Kingsdown road last week and tearing up vegetation adjacent to his property. Concern about the trees was uppermost. Helen Williams (DDC councillor) was contacted and her action\/ correspondence is attached. A temporary TPO was put on the trees for 6 months but in the newsletter report Debby is to include a request to members to be aware of the fact this will TPO\u00a0\u00a0will need to be extended by DDC. Could members be proactive in requesting this if they object to the felling of these healthy trees.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
