Planning application

6 Larwood Grove Nottingham Nottingham City NG5 3JD

Granted Nottingham 24/01708/PTPO Works to trees protected by TPO

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

PROPOSAL: WORKS TO LIME TREE (T10) PROTECTED BY TPO (EDWARDS LANE/LARWOODGROVE) TO SIGINIFICANTLY REDUCE THE SIZE OF THE TREE TO MINIMIZE THE HAZARD THE TREE IS CURRENTLY POSING TO THE PROPERTY AND ITS OCCUPANTS AND SURROUNDING AREA DUE TO THE SIZE OF THE TREE AND PROXIMITY TO PROPPERTY (6 LARWOOD GROVE). THE TREE TRUNK STRADLES THE BOUNDRY BETWEEN 5 AND 6 LARWOOD GROVE ( BACK GARDEN), HOWEVER IT IS MUCH CLOSER TO THE PROPERTY AT 6 LARWOOD GROVE, WITH THE TREE BRANCHES VISIBLY OVERHANGING OVER THE ROOF. THE DISTANCE OF THE TREE TRUNK TO THE PROPERTY IS ESTIMATED TO BE APPROX 5 METERS. BROKEN OFF BRANCHES ARE DROPPING TO THE GROUND DAILY, WITH SIZE AND FREQUENCY OF THE DEBRIS INCREASING IN WINDY CONDITIONS. THE BRANCHES ARE LANDING IN FRONT OF THE GARDEN BACK DOOR (USED TO ACCESS THE BACK GARDEN). MAIN CONCERN IS THE SIZE OF THE TREE AND ITS PROXIMITY TO THE HOUSE AND FEAR IT MAY COLLAPSE ON TO THE PROPERTY AND ITS OCCUPANTS, IN STORMY WEAHTER CONDITIONS. WE ARE CALLING THE COUNCIL TO INSPECT IT AND NOT TO IGNORE OUR SAFETY (WE 2 CHILDREN AND PETS). THE DANGER IS REAL AND OUR CONCERNS SHOULD NOT BE DISMISSED. PRESERVING HUMAN LIFE AND REDUCING THE POSSIBILITY OF SEVERE DAMAGE SHOULD HAVE PRIORITY OVER THE TREE. THE RISK IS REAL TO US AND THE ACTION SHOULD BE TAKEN WITHOUT DELAY. 'ACTS OF GOD' CAN NOT BE FORESEEN HOWEVER WE CAN REDUCE POTENTIAL CATASTROPHIC CONSEQUENCES BY TAKING ACTION TO REDUCE THE SIZE OF THE TREE.

    Tree Code: Sgl/106736 Species: Beech (Fagus sylvatica) TPO: TPO269 (T10) Works Sectionally fell and remove the Beech tree to ground level. Remove all timber, branches and arising debris from site. Grind out or otherwise remove the stump where practicable, or leave at ground level as directed by the client. Reason for Works The tree is exhibiting significant structural defects and decay, including: Evidence of substantial basal decay associated with fungal activity (Pholiota spp.). Hollow sounding stem indicating internal decay. Two very large historic tear-out wounds, including one approximately 5 metres above ground level. Major limb loss and loss of large branches. Abnormal buttressing and trunk form. Stem decay below the crown break. These defects indicate a significant decline in structural integrity and an increased risk of partial or whole-tree failure. Summary 1 × Beech (Fagus sylvatica) Sectional dismantling and removal of the entire tree due to advanced structural defects and decay.
