Planning application
48 Springfield Green Chelmsford Essex CM1 7HS
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T8 Red Norway Maple and T6 Prunus - Remove lateral branches at suitable growing points or branch collars. Remove deadwood - Reason: So that the tree has a better appearance and does not get out of control. As the tree is encroaching the roadside boundary, overhanging branches should be cut back so that the tree does not injure the public on the pavement along.
