Planning application
TRE/2022/0170
Bottom Cottage Thurlow Booth Whatstandwell Matlock Derbyshire DE4 5ER
Proposal
Removal of Norway spruce that was originally planted for use as a household Christmas tree (see attached map ??? labelled T1). This tree is growing very close to my domestic Klargester/septic tank system. I was advised by Ashfield Effluent that the tree roots might be at risk of damaging the Klargester/septic tank if the tree is not cut down. Removal of a multi-trunk sycamore tree which is restricting the growth of an adjacent specimen native silver birch (see attached map ??? labelled T2). Both trees are full within my property. neither tree is subject to a TPO. The trees cannot be seen from neighbouring properties or from any roads or footpaths.

About trees applications
How this application type works
Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.
