Planning application

56 Weetwood Lane Weetwood Leeds LS16 5NH

Split decision Leeds 25/06132/TR Tree Works

Works: Trees

Part of this application was approved and part refused. The decision notice on the council portal sets out which is which.

Proposal

C1 Conifer - Urgent removal, tree requires dismantling as it is both a risk and a compromised tree. Leaning, which had a major stem fail 6 months ago is currently leaning significantly on a neighbouring conifer. B1 Beech - Crown lift the beech to a height of 5m to allow light underneath the canopy H1 Holly - 1m height reduction and 0.5m lateral reduction on the crown. Tree has grown rapidly in the last few years and given the proximity to the house the client would like the canopy of this tree to be managed and reduced a little.
