Proposal

Requesting to remove X1 small-Medium sized self seeding Ash tree within a conservation area Ref:7,090.00 on behalf of Bradford Central, Seventh day Adventist Church. The church have expressed serious concerns and fears due to the heavy leaning and unevenly weighted Ash canopy that may fail during high winds, should this tree fail it will be falling straight onto a very busy footpath and road potentially causing serious injury to pedestrians and or damage to property which the church will be liable for. Upon visual inspection it is clear to see the majority of the canopies weight is on the road and footpath side see pictures attached. A very weak looking attachment point is also present holding a large lateral limb that spans the full width of the road, also see pictures attached. Subject to a successful application the Ash tree in question will be dismantled and removed leave a six foot stem in place to retain the properties boundary line and ensure site security.
