Planning application

Works: Trees Small domestic
Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Yew Tree - either A. Lop back B. Remove completely or leave a living stump only. We have recently received notice from Devon County Council Highway Management requesting that the tree is to be cut back due to it overhanging our property boundary and causing a hazard to highway users. This type of Yew tree carries high levels of toxins that can be deadly to humans and animals. We have recently moved to the property and have two small children that play in the garden so feel that it is unsafe for our welfare as a family. The tree is very close to our boundary wall and house so we would like to avoid any structural damage to the property.

19 Falkland Close Exeter EX4 5EZ
Oak tree on no mans land embankment which over looks garden of 18 Falkland Close, Exeter, EX4 5EZ. It has a large branch overhanging our garden. Tree surgeon Mitchell Tree Surgery has visited site and advised it needs to be removed. He says it is a large overhanging heavy limb which could cause considerable damage. Last year a large branch from a neighbouring oak next to It came down in a storm and caused damage. Our neighbours in number 18 and ourselves are concerned about this particular branch we wish to report to be removed. The tree itself has grown to 60 foot plus range and we all feel our houses are at risk. Sketch plan attached
