The submission relates to Condition 13 of an earlier planning permission (23/00744/B) for a large mixed-use development at Vollan Fields, Andreas Road, Ramsey. That permission granted full approval for up to 153 dwellings with associated highway access, drainage, landscaping, and public open space, along with outline approval for a primary school and habitat enhancement east of Royal Park. The condition required an Arboricultural Method Statement to be approved before any development, site clearance, or ground preparation could begin. The AMS sets out how trees and hedgerows identified on drawings TP-061222-NE_revD and TP-061222SW_revD will be protected during construction, in line with BS5837:2012. The submitted information was found to satisfy the condition and was permitted under delegated authority.

The AMS was approved because it provided the required technical detail on tree and hedgerow protection measures during construction, meeting the requirements of Condition 13 and adhering to the recommendations of BS5837:2012. With the condition satisfied, development can proceed in accordance with the original permission.
