Proposal

T1 - Magnolia Grandiflora - reduce by 1.2m in height, and trim the remainder to neaten. T2 - Olive tree - remove branches overhanging the lawn, and reduce by 2.0m in height. T3 - Bay tree - reduce by 3.5m in height, and trim the remainder to neaten. T4 - Portuguese laurel - trim by approx 1.0m to neaten. T5 - Laurel - trim by approx. 1.0m to neaten. T6 - Olive tree - trim by approx. 1.0m-1.5m to neaten. NOTE - these trees are kept small and shrub-like. As they are required for these same works approximately every 18 months, may we ask that we can carry out these works as such, without submitting an application to the local authority each time?
