Planning application
3 Brean Down Avenue Weston-super-Mare BS23 4JH
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
T1 - Monterey Cypress - Reduce end weight of lateral branches by up to 1.5 meters, remove compromised dynamic cable brace and install new. cable brace has been installed previously (date unknown), this has no slack and is under constant tension, the contact point with the stems is now strangling the tree. I believe the end weight reduction will reduce some of the constant tension on the current cable brace, allowing us to remove it and correctly install a new dynamic cable brace with a yearly inspection plan to monitor any adverse movement/tension.
