Planning application
152 Obelisk Road Southampton SO19 9DP
Works: Trees
Refused. Only the applicant can appeal, within the statutory time limit, and a revised scheme can be submitted instead.
Proposal
4x Yew - Reduce lateral spread over rear gardens by up to 2m from branch tips. The work is to start at the longest extension to set the line for the rest of the trees, therefore some trees may not be reduced back by 2 metres, but the aim is to have a level face set by the 2 metre reduction of the longest extension growth. Reduce height by up to a maximum of 2.5 metres ensuring that the canopy is shaped and not flat across the length of the trees. All cuts are to go back to suitable growth points of one third the diameter of the final cut.
