Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
Six Week Notice to remove the tree from the rear garden at 221 Philip Lane. It is a Plum tree about 35 years and has been slowly deteriorating for the last 2 years and this year has in fact shown it is beyond any meaningful reason to retain it. It does not pose a health and safety danger to life or property as it is well managed in its location, however I believe due to the current condition there are dry branches at high level which will indeed fall.
