Proposal
Cherry tree: reduce the height of the crown by 3m and remove the large branch from the middle stem, at the secondary union, which overhangs No 75's garden. To remove the amount of overhanging branches as the falling cherry and bird excrement is causing nuisance and health issues to the applicant's pet.
