Planning application
49 Victoria Park Road Exeter EX2 4NU
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1 False Acacia. Fell A structural survey carried out on behalf of the buyers of a neighbouring property flagged the proximity of the tree to that property and the risks that causes. Also due to the size of the tree it now places almost all of their garden in shade. The tree has become too large for my urban garden. If it is felled I will plant a smaller shrub or tree nearby to replace it, thus addressing the problems flagged above, whilst accommodating indigenous wildlife

87 Greyfriars Road Exeter EX4 7BS
T1 - Sessile Oak- Remove to Ground level - Removal of the heavily suppressed sessile oak with the bark-included junction is advised to eliminate the risk associated with that structurally weak junction, reduce intra-group competition and improve spacing within the group, which will support the long-term condition of the remaining trees and help keep risk within broadly acceptable levels. T2 - Monterey Pine - It is recommended that the leaning branch from the Monterey pine that extends above the neighbouring garden is pruned back to remove the over-extended section over the adjoining property and reduce the lever arm acting on the branch union, thereby lowering the risk of branch failure into the neighbouring garden while maintaining a balanced crown where practicable this is approximately 1.5 metres in length.
