Tree Strategy workshops

The City Council is consulting on its tree strategy: a matter that is close to many peoples hearts. As a way of getting public opinion at an early stage the City is holding three workshops.

Probably the most useful one for King's Hedges residents is on 21st March from 12 to 7pm in the Meadows Centre. However there are two others, one in Cherry Hinton Village at 12-7pm on March 15, and one at the Guildhall from 12 until 8pm on the 23rd March.

To quote from the information we've been sent:
The workshops will be interactive drop in events where issues and concerns, including options for addressing these concerns in the emerging Strategy, can be raised from the outset. You are invited to drop into any of these events and talk to Council officers about different aspects of tree management in areas like new neighbourhoods, Local Nature Reserves, and parks and open spaces. Council officers will collect the thoughts and ideas and use these to start developing the strategy.

As part of these events, the Council is organising specific slots for round table discussions. These sessions will be held at 2.30pm and 6pm at each event.

More information is available via email on treesconsultations@cambridge.gov.uk, or in case of difficulty contact one of the team.
