Planning application
7 Ennerdale Road, Kew
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Alianthus (Tree of Heaven), approximately 12 metres in height: Recommend reducing overall height from 12 metres to 9 metres. Lateral spread should be limited from 7 metres to 5 metres in all directions. This is routine maintenance aimed at containing the tree and maintaining its current dimensions. Additionally, root activity adjacent to the wall should be reduced to prevent further encroachment.
