I understand that we need to accommodate a higher population in Whitehorse and that increased residential development is necessary. I also understand that, on that basis, it is difficult to maintain current levels of vegetation. Nevertheless it is imperative that existing vegetation, in particular trees, be factored in to any planning decision. Whitehorse Council's Urban Forest Strategy provides an excellent reference on this subject. With the community's needs in mind, many Whitehorse residents are working to improve their own properties, and many are volunteering in their own time planting to increase flora, and consequently fauna, and to increase the tree canopy in the future.
I would request that council take this into consideration when making decisions on this and future development applications.
