Planning application
3 Rookery Close St Ives PE27 5FX
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
T1 (Ash) - Laterally reduce lower canopy (up to 8m high) by 2m thin upper canopy over garden by 20%. Reason - This is a mature Ash tree and completely dominates the garden, causing heavy shade and leading to detritus from the tree and birds to fall into the garden. The tree has grown significantly since the house was bought.
