Proposal

WAL:12/72 - The tree is a Silver Birch tree located in the front of the property shown as T2 on the plan. Pre application advice obtained from a council tree officer indicated that the tree was in a healthy physiological and structural condition. The twin stemmed tree has a relatively broad crown and a limited amount of crown reduction is requested to lessen the loading on the crown. Specifically agreement is sought to crown thin by up to 10% and crown lift to provide 3m clearance by removing secondary and tertiary growth only. The reasons for requesting this work are to provide greater clearance underneath the crown and reduce the amount of resistance on the crown and structure during high winds.
