Council decision: No objectionDelegated (officer decision)

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

Proposal

T1. Crown lifting of neighbouring ash tree. Trim back 5-6 lowest garden-side branches that are hanging down and over-hanging my garden. These pose a danger as branches have already fallen down and there is a risk of more branches breaking. The work is required is to mitigate this risk and prevent danger to people/children playing in the garden. The tree is at the corner of the neighbouring garden with branches hanging directly over my garden, approx.10 meters from my property. T2. Crown reduction of conifer hedge. Trim conifer tree-hedge to the height of the lowest tree, and trim back branches overhanging the pavement. The work is required to maintain the conifer hedge and ensure room for pedestrians on the pavement. The tree-hedge is located next to the boundary fence, and approx. 8m from my property. The tree branches over hang the pavement.
