Planning application
11 ACORN DRIVE, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 1GE
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
1no. Oak (T1) - Reduce a lateral branch extending toward street light by approx. 1–2m, pruning back to the nearest suitable growth point, while retaining the tree’s natural form and structural balance as per request from Southern Electric. The lateral growth is obstructing light output from the adjacent street light. Works to restore effective light coverage in the interest of public safety and amenity. Works will comprise a minor lateral crown reduction / selective pruning to the affected branch only. No reduction to the overall height or remainder of the crown is proposed.

1no. Oak - Prune all branches by 3-4m. Mature tree and its crown covers a corner of the house. Some branches hang over the gutter and when the leaves fall they clog and block the gutter and the downpipes. Tree leans quite significantly towards the public footpath and road. Branches that are above road also need to be pruned for the tree to be 'better balanced', to stop from further leaning and refrain the tree from falling which could be harmful to public and cars.

30 RANDALL ROAD, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 5AL
1no. Silver Birch (T1) - Fell to ground level due to poor physiological state of the tree which has been occurring over the last four years. There is no reasonable reduction of the crown possible that would prolong the life of the tree as tree is unlikely to respond well to pruning. Replant with another Birch.
