P-04-658 The Brimmon Oak
This
petition was submitted by Mervyn Lloyd Jones and Rob McBride, having collected
4,730 signatures.
Text of Petition
We,
the undersigned, call upon the National Assembly for Wales to urge the Welsh
Government to adhere to the recommendations of the appointed arboricultural
specialist’s report that it commissioned as part of the environmental
assessment for the much needed A483 Newtown bypass.
This
would result in the preservation of one of the most significant ‘Natural
Monuments’ of Montgomeryshire, whilst facilitating the economic revival of the
County Town. People from Montgomeryshire, across Wales and indeed the wider
world are aware that sustainability has always been the ‘central organising
principle’ of the Welsh Government since the National Assembly was created in
1999.
The
safeguarding of the Brimmon Oak as part of the historic A483 Newtown Bypass
will be a demonstration of the Welsh Government's commitment to preserving our
birth right for the Wellbeing of Future Generations.
