Proposal

Reduce 1x Oak by 3-4m due to included bark unions at main forks and throughout the crown to reduce the potential for failure and retain the tree for the long term. Remove failed limb, and reduce the long lateral growing over the public open space by 3m on 1x mature Ash. Works are to maintain safety and improve clearances. Crown lift all trees over the cut grass area of the public open space to 5.5m to maintain clearances.
