Nottingham Trent University The Maltings Whitemoor Road Nottingham Nottingham City NG6 0HN
Proposal
T1 & T2 sycamore group - Property owners behind the university have complained the at tree is causing issues with shading and its size. The size of the tree is having an impact on the owners being able to enjoy the use of the rear garden as when in leaf there will be very little light. The tree is mature with a large crown and is located very close to the property, and some of the branches almost touch the roof. Works would be to framework pollard the tree reducing the height and lateral spread by approx 3-4 m thus allowing the tree to be retained.

What refusal means
The process from here
The council refused this application for the reasons set out on the decision notice, which the council portal holds in full. Only the applicant can appeal a refusal; the time limit runs from the decision date and is shorter for householder schemes.
Refusal does not prevent a fresh attempt. Applicants often address the reasons for refusal and resubmit, so a refused scheme is not necessarily the end of proposals for the site.
About trees applications
How this application type works
Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.

8 Haversham Close Nottingham Nottingham City NG6 0JQ
The tree (and it may be more than a single tree) has grown to such a large extent that it is damaging the boundary fence and overshadows half of the rear garden. During high winds the worry is that it could fall and damage the house, possibly killing the occupants. The tree is identified by means of a red arrow on the detailed google plan. The work required is to trim the overhanging branches back to the boundary or to reduce its height and spread to the satisfaction of the City Council. The tree species is not known. Tree is within Bar Lane Industrial Estate NG6 0JA. Ownership is MEADOW LANE SERVICES LIMITED (Co. Regn. No. 11850392) of 1 Pinnacle Way, Pride Park, Derby DE24 8ZS.
