Proposed Tree Planting Scheme in Field Behind
Kilmaronock Millennium Hall

Following the meeting held on 5 December 2011 (that took place after the Kilmaronock Community Council Extraordinary Meeting) requests were made to put the information regarding the proposed tree planting scheme on the website including details of who to contact if anyone wishes to comment. Please see below for more details.

UPM Tilhill, acting as forestry agents for Iain Methven, has notified neighbours of a proposed tree planting scheme in the Millennium Hall field. If the planning application for housing is refused the field will be planted as shown in the plan below. If the planning application is successful, the field will be planted northwest of the France Farm boundary.

Mr Methven is hoping that the planting will be funded by a grant from the Scottish Rural Development Programme – Rural Priorities Fund. For forestry applications this fund is administered by Forestry Commission Scotland – Central Scotland Conservancy.
