Planning application

4 Hector Close Locking Weston-super-Mare BS24 7GX

Refused North Somerset 26/P/0549/TPO Works to TPO

Works: Trees

Refused. Only the applicant can appeal, within the statutory time limit, and a revised scheme can be submitted instead.

Proposal

T1- Willow - Fell. Due to being within 6m of the property, and a species that can attain 25m in height, it is considered highly unsuitable for a small residential back garden and so to avoid future structural issues we are applying to remove the tree.

As published by the council, reference 26/P/0549/TPO
