Proposal
Mature Tree of heaven behind the main church building (listed), approx 4m from the building and over hanging the roof. Removal recommended by Tree Surgeon Aaron (Broadleaf Tree Surgery) due to back filling of soil against tree, in a raised floor bed 80cm high, likely causing a slow dying of the tree. Removal will offer more Iight and growth opportunities to the remaining trees to the East corner
