Planning application
8 Summers Close Kirkby Mallory Leicester Leicestershire LE9 7QP
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
T1 Lime - Crown reduce by 30% 4-5mtrs lower than last pollard point. The tree has been pollarded many times it is now just a mass of green and my client and neighbours are all losing light but gaining a ton of leaf in the winter. The aim is to create a new smaller crown that wont be such a blot of green

Old Hall Markfield Road Groby Leicester Leicestershire LE6 0FL
Horse chestnut tree (T1) Overhanging branches pruned back to the boundary line, removing branches that are causing obstruction, reducing available light to property and affecting access. The works would consist of selective crown reduction/pruning of the overhanging branches only.

9 Rookery Lane Groby Leicester Leicestershire LE6 0GL
T1 Lawsons Cypress: Removal of the Lawsons Cypress is proposed due to its very close proximity to the adjacent property, approximately 1.5 metres away. T2 Cedar of Lebanon: Reduce all lateral and upper branches by approximately 3 metres to maintain a smaller, more manageable crown size and reduce the potential risk of branch failure.
