Planning application

12A The Grove Asfordby Leicestershire LE14 3UF

Granted Melton 23/00154/TPOCM Tree Preservation Order

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

A large lime tree which is located within 5 meters of the house , 12a The Grove. Proposed works are to give a heavy reduction / pollard of the tree. Reasons for the work are to manage this tree because of its close proximity to the property. The tree needs managing because of the risk of subsidence. Also the risk of the property becoming uninsurable if your not allowed to manage a tree so close to the property. The tree also takes light away from the garden that has other large protected trees. The other lime trees in the cul-de-sac have been managed by being pollarded.
