Council decision: PermittedDelegated (officer decision)

Approximate location: the centre of the postcode, not the exact property.

Proposal

T1 - 2 x Lombardy Poplar trees: Reduce by approximately 6 metres in height; to the previous pruning points. Cut size of up to 4 inch. Reasons - The 6 metres of re-growth on Lombardy Poplars likely to fail in adverse weather. They have been pruned a number of times over the years to these same growth points, so the work would not be out of keeping with previous management of the trees. T2 - Sycamore: Prune the lateral extension towards the house by 1metre - cut size of up to 2 inches. Reasons - to ensure that lateral growth does not extend near the building, and to help with better light conditions.
