Planning application
PA25/08850
Back Flat 1 Florence Terrace Falmouth Cornwall TR11 3RR
Proposal
Works to trees in a conservation area namely Acacia Dealbata, Mimosa Tree at the main entrance to the property and garden. Remove first lowest limb over hanging the path, reduce over hang/crown lift to roughly in line with the boundary hedge but maintaining best athletic balance. Reduce crown in hight approx 1.5m and thin crown < 10%. Tree is leaning towards the road and path. Old wound in the base, back of stem, could indicate decay in base. Needs to have weight removed and crown clean to prevent wind throw, risk to life and to increase the likelihood of the future of the tree. Lower limb is at low head height causing obstruction.

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.
