Planning application
8 Rectory Gardens Nottingham Nottingham City NG8 2AR
Works: Trees
Decided. The decision notice on the council portal carries the outcome in full, including any conditions.
Proposal
Sycamore (T1) - remove any minor shoots where previous lower branches have been removed and seal Sycamore (T2) - remove any minor shoots where previous lower branches have been removed and seal Sycamore (T3) - remove any minor shoots where previous lower branches have been removed and seal Sycamore (T4) - lift the crown of the tree to the northeast side of the tree (furthest from the house) up by approx 4-5m, so the canopy lines matches trees T1-3, T5 and allow more light onto the bottom end of the garden. This portion of the tree is not visible from the road. Sycamore (T5) - remove 4-5 offshoot branches from right fork of tree (when looking from the house) which over hang neighbours garden and are very close to their roof (see photo for additional information) Pine (T6) - proposed to be felled to ground level. Reason: the needles collect and hold dust which severely affects two of the residents who have hay fever and asthma. The tree being a pine is out of keeping with the rest of the sycamore group. It blocks the low level views through the main sycamore trees to the bottom end of the garden. It does not affect the main tree grouping from the road (see marked up photo from the road). Trees are within G1 of TPO 55. Overall sycamore trees are to be crown lifted no more than 4 to 5 metres.
