Replacement tree planting details submitted for two new homes in Rainham

ImpactAutomated estimate

Summary

This application provides details of the replacement trees that must be planted as part of a previously approved plan to build two new homes at Marshall Road, Rainham. The original permission required a specific number of trees to replace those lost during building work. The site is a residential street in Rainham, close to several schools including Rainham School for Girls and The Howard School, both a few minutes' walk away. There are two mapped trees within the immediate area of the site. Because this application is about satisfying a condition from an earlier permission, the main question for the council is whether the proposed trees meet the requirements set at the time.

What you can do

You can comment on this application through Medway Council's planning portal using reference MC/26/0395. The council can only consider matters relevant to the condition about replacement tree planting — not the principle of the homes themselves, which was already approved. Comments must focus on whether the proposed trees satisfy the original requirement.
