Proposal

5 Day Dead/ Dangerous Notification Exemption Tree Work Request: Ref: Clovis Thurlow Road Torquay After a lengthy conversation with Colin Haleys Gardening He has explained that one of his employees has unfortunately cut through a large holding root of the Monterey Cypress mistaking this for the Bay that they were digging out lack of knowledge After viewing my recommendation would be to reduce the tree in height as in image 4 reduced by approx 10 15 meters this will relieve the pressure on the root plate leaving the tree safer and ascetically pleasing to view
