Planning application
28 New Road Hollywood Worcestershire B47 5ND
Works: Trees
Refused. Only the applicant can appeal, within the statutory time limit, and a revised scheme can be submitted instead.
Proposal
Both trees are oak trees and are the only trees on the front drive of property number 28. Both trees were last cut in September 2022 4 years ago so this is good neighbourly tree maintenance because as you can see from my plan Tree A is blocking light from number 30. Both trees would need the whole crown cutting by at least 30% as they are getting way out of control.

T1 Oak Remove to The tree works are proposed to stop the influence of the tree(s) on the soil below building foundation level and provide long term stability.to 14 Heathfield Road Redditch B97 5SQ Estimated costs of repair to the building are ?63360.00 if the influence of the tree(s) remain and ?4,225.10 if the proposed tree works are allowed to proceed. Granting permission will limit these costs. In the event of a refusal we, or our clients, will seek to secure compensation for the additional costs incurred through Section 202(e). Should the tree/s remain the total cost of repairs will be the Superstructural repairs + Alternative method of repairs = ?67585.10 It is the expert opinion of both the case engineer and arboriculturalist that on the balance of probabilities the supporting information demonstrates the influence of the tree(s). Note: Further monitoring results may be submitted if these become available during the course of this application.
