Proposal

Tree Works (all trees protected under TPO No. 20, March 1971): T23 Cedar of Lebanon (Cedrus libani, listed in TPO as Cedrus spp.): Crown lift roadside canopy to 6m. Reason: T23 shows signs of recent limb loss on the east side at 12m. The tree has previously been crown lifted on the property side and retains low branches on the roadside that are beginning to encroach on the adjacent pavement. T25 Cedar of Lebanon (Cedrus libani, listed in TPO as Cedrus spp.): Crown lift roadside canopy to 6m. Reason: The tree has previously been crown lifted on the property side and retains low branches on the roadside that are beginning to encroach on the adjacent pavement. T24 Variegated Holly (Ilex aquifolium var.): Fell and grind stump. Reason: The tree is dead. T26 Variegated Holly (Ilex aquifolium var.): Fell and grind stump. Reason: The tree is in very poor form having been topped in the past at approximately 5m and suppressed by adjacent Cedar (T25). It exhibits minor stem decay and deadwood, has no realistic longevity, and makes little contribution to visual amenity.
