Proposal
Carry out a light crown reduction to T1 Silver birch (Betula pendula) by no more than 2.5 metres from the tips of the outer canopy, retaining the tree’s natural form and overall height. Works to include selective shortening of branch ends only, with no topping, and no removal of the main scaffold branches. The purpose of the works is routine tree management and to maintain appropriate clearance from surrounding properties and the highway. Page: Authority employee / member
