Works: Trees
Decided. The decision notice on the council portal carries the outcome in full, including any conditions.
Proposal
Mature Beech tree opposite Green Ridges property at the end of Vale Royal Drive. It is recommended that the tree is reduced to a height of 6m by means of pollarding within 6 months to retain the remaining stem and small sections of the main leaders utilising coronet cuts, in order to alleviate the risk to site users and adjacent properties whilst retaining a feature of biodiversity value for nature conservation purposes.
