Proposal
T1 - Sweet Chestnut - 30% canopy reduction. Reason for works - the tre is located within very close proximity to the property, the canopy is also heavily weighted towards buildings. T2 - Oak - reduce large scaffold limbs by 2m, in order to prevent breakout over buildings. T3 - Beech - cut back beech overhanging shed and driveway by 2m. In addition, the owner of the property is experiencing vermin issues in the roof (squirrels). The pest control officer has suggested the tree works would reduce/prevent this issue.

Peak tree to be lopped by 7m, neighboured tree to be reduced by 4m. The tree identified by EE Ltd is severely affecting the transmission of telecoms site 93310. This EE Ltd site forms part of the Emergency Services Network which is vital for police, ambulance and rescue communication etc for the surrounding area. I have sought the attached information from my client to see whether there were any other alternatives than to lop the tree.
