    Initial Proposal: T1. Oak. Formative prune/ reshape crown. Crown suppressed by T2. T2. Oak. Fell. Planted close to property and above large septic tank. The tree will need continual pruning throughout the years and will cause damage to the driveway. Its presence cause light issues for neighbouring properties that are overshadowed by the crown. Its loss would be mitigated by the retention of T1. T3. Oak. Rebalance crown, crown clean. Tidy poor pruning cuts. Updated specification for works following discussion: T1 Oak. Reduce crown by 2 metres to create more compact and manageable shape. T2 Oak. Reduce crown by 3 metres to form a compact shake and give distance to properties. T3 Oak. Rebalance crown over neighbouring property by maximum of 1.5 metres and remove dead wood and tidy poor pruning cuts.
