We intend to prune our Mimosa Tree at the front of the property to keep it well maintained and prevent it from protruding significantly into the Highway. This also obstructs visibility for those using the courtyard which is a safety concern. Please see image of tree and location plan. NB: Tree is the larger of the two canopies depicted in the front garden on the plans (SE corner). The proposed works consist of a selective crown reduction to the outer extremities of the canopy. It is intended to reduce the length of the overextended branches to approx 1.5-2m from the branch tips equating to an overall reduction of no more than 20-30% of the crown volume.
