Planning application

Franklin 25 Easby Drive Ilkley West Yorkshire LS29 9AZ

Awaiting decision Bradford 26/02082/CPN

Works: Trees

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

T1 - Sycamore Tree - Reduce the overall height of the tree by approximately 7.5 metres (25 ft), from approximately 15 metres (50 ft) to a finished height of approximately 7.5 metres (25 ft). Works to be carried out by reduction pruning to suitable growth points, maintaining a balanced crown and natural shape - The tree has become disproportionately large for its location and is causing nuisance to the neighbouring property. Its height and canopy are contributing to excessive shading and loss of natural light, and the tree is impacting gutters through the accumulation of leaf litter and small branch debris. The proposed reduction will retain the tree as an important landscape feature and privacy screen whilst reducing its dominance and bringing it to a more appropriate size for its surroundings. The works will help ensure the long-term retention of the tree within the site while reducing its impact on adjacent residential properties.
