Proposal
T1 Walnut tree - Cut back to stop future growing over property, pathway and guttering. As branches falling constantly onto property guttering and damaging, now requiring replacement, tree debris blocking downpipes and gutters, making property pathway slippery when accessing the back door and garden. Cut tree as per annotated photo & cut to clear public pathway. T2 Walnut tree located in 10 Adelaide close - Remove tree completely as tree is encroaching and damaging our property fence line. This tree is located very close to our boundary and is now damaging fence line. Constant debris falling all over our garden and patio space and blocking gutters, large branches overhanging both sides of the fence line. After speaking to our neighbour of No.10, we have both agreed that it would be best interests if the tree was removed. The tree is located in a tight space between both properties. The branches now large and overhanging, vehicles and property. The tree is just too big now for the small space it's crammed into. After tree is removed we can then repair our fence line making it safe for both children and pets T3 Walnut tree - Cut tree as per annotated photo leaving at approx 6m (20ft) in height from ground height and raise crown to 2.5m from ground level.
