Proposal
The tree to be worked on lies within area A1 as specified in the First Schedule to the Tree Preservation Order TPO/114/2/M. It is an early mature silver birch tree at the front of my property. Some of the branches are now touching my porch roof and are near my car, when it is parked in the drive. To have the tree pruned back, ensuring that it maintained its ?lollypop? shape as per the attached diagram. The height of the tree is to be reduced by 3 metres. At the level of the bottom branches, the width is to be trimmed back to a radius of 3 metres from the crown of the tree. The branches are to be thinned by 15 % and this should be applied everywhere.
