Winchester City Council are updating the 2015 open space strategy to a 2020 open space strategy, presumably to take forward gaps for the 2036 Local Plan. The Clerk has informed them that open space in the Sandyfields development needs to be added but added a caution about including the woodland as public access is not yet available and the ownership is not yet resolved.

Winchester City Council currently have no plans at the moment to put a TPO on the Oaks. They feel it is unfair to responsible trees owners because someone else's actions to put TPO on the Oaks. The Woodland TPO will not be extended as this will mean householders would be unable to cultivate their gardens.
