Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
1 No. Magnolia (T1) - Reduce height and spread by up to 2m. Reduce eastern aspect back to previous points to gain approx. 1.5m clearance from property. Reduce northern, western and southern aspects by up to 2m to suitable growth points and reshape to keep good form. Light prune on the height of up to 1m to keep natural shape and thin canopy by removing branches under 10mm to allow light and air into crown. Remove crossing and rubbing branches also. To clear branches from property’s roof, footpath and public highway, and minimise leaves and petals falling on neighbours drive, causing a slip hazard. To stop interference with telephone cable that runs through it. To bring it back into a more manageable shape and stop it restricting the light coming into the kitchen and dining room windows.

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.
