Proposal

An application (Case Number: 20/01146/TPC) was submitted, and approval granted, for a False Acacia. Crown raise 5m. Reduce and Shape 3.5m. Blocking light to 3 properties. Causing demise of adjacent Laurel bush. Three separate arborists have since visited the site to cost the work required and all have recommended that the application should have been made for removal and replacement rather than reduction/shaping because the tree, which was planted in approximately 2001, is not suitable for its location. The advice given is that 'Reduce and Shape' will simply encourage more rapid growth, exacerbate the existing problem and require being carried out every 2-3 years. It is therefore requested that the False Acacia be removed and replaced by an alternative tree that is suitable for the location.
