9 ASHDOWN CLOSE, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 5QF
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
1no. Maple (T1) – Crown reduction by 2m back to suitable previous growth points, maintaining a natural and balanced crown. Tree extends over the adjacent pavement and was previously pruned approx. 2 years ago and has since regrown sufficiently to encroach over the pavement again. A light cyclical reduction approx. every 2 years is recommended to maintain suitable clearance over the pavement and manage the tree's size. Please note, home owner has been issued with a letter requesting reduction of this tree over the pathway. It is requested that consideration be given to allowing this work to be undertaken on a regular cyclical basis, subject to the tree remaining in a suitable condition and the works being carried out in accordance with good arboricultural practice.

1no. Conifer (T1) – Remove to prevent further structural damage. The conifer is exerting pressure on the boundary fence, causing it to lean and become unstable. This is a practical and proportionate solution to address the current damage, improve the appearance of the garden, and ensure the boundary can be properly maintained.

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.
