Proposal

Tree 1 - A heavily leaning willow tree at the far end of the garden, the tree is leaning over the fence and towards the footpath on the Taro field. There is also a lot of deadwood in the tree with cracked week branches. Because of the location of the tree and it being unsafe to the public I recommend the tree to be removed. The tree will be section felled and removed from site.Tree 2 - A multi stem silver birch tree growing roughly in the middle of the rear garden of the property. It is a two-stem tree with a week union where the tree becomes a multi stem, the tree also has lots of dead wood, split branches and is far to tall for the location. Removal of the tree is what we are seeking to do, I believe a reduction is not the best option being a birch tree. Unfortunately, it is unclear if the silver birch is within the blanket TPO, it is located in the garden, not on the old railway bank as the TPO states. The removal of the trees is for safety reasons and no other. There are sufficient trees in close proximity that keep the aspherical value of the location. If required, we are willing to plant trees in the garden to replace the ones we remove.
