22/01501/ATPPlanning Application 22/01501/ATP

T1 Sequoia . I am writing to request that further work is done to the large Sequoia that is the subject of the above approval. Most of the approved works have been completed by another contractor but my client is very concerned about the branches attached to the top of the main stem where there is a very large cavity. This cavity is obviously not visible from the ground but a drone was sent up after the first lot of work was carried out and the evidence suggests that a further 6-8ft of the main stem should be removed to minimise the risk of the 4-5m limbs ( that are over the property) failing . Please see the attached photos from both ground level and from above the tree, clearly showing the extent of the cavity and where I propose to reduce the height to. I am hoping that as this application is still within the 2 years since approval that I would be able to complete this works without submitting another formal application. I would like to stress that urgent nature of these works as I genuinely feel that these large lateral limbs are posing a real threat to the property should they fail. I look forward to you quick response.
