Proposal
Reference: 162W Tree Number: T36 Species: Chilean Pine The Monkey Puzzle (Chilean Pine) is serious hazard. Firstly, the tree roots have already caused significant damage to the drive and are encroaching closer to the house so, left unresolved, I am worried they will have irreparable damage to the house foundations. I also do not know where the drains are positioned but if they can push up the brick driveway then I assume they could, and may already be causing damage to the drains. Secondly, and more importantly, the tree canopy is positioned right where we park our car. Big, dense branches are constantly falling down so they are a serious danger to our health and safety, particularly our young children. The branches are long and very heavy as they full of sharp, spikey leaves. The branches also fall onto the roof of the car causing scratches and dents. The plan is to remove the tree completely to solve both these dangerous issues. There is no plan to replace the tree as once there is more than 2 cars on the drive (this is the case when we have guests, carers, visit the house and will be a daily challenge as our children get older and have cars) it is impossible to turn the cars around resulting in us having to dangerously reverse onto a busy road (Bramhall Lane South). A local registered arboricultural specialist has been to the house to view the tree and agrees with the assessment. HAR/CA30 ,TPO#: 162W - T36 ,TPO#: 162W - T37 ,TPO#: 162W - T38 ,TPO#: 162W - T39

Two Beech trees T36 and T37 in the plan. These Trees have been dead for a number of years and now pose a very significant risk to human life including my family and grand children. These dead trees need to be felled or all branches need to be removed. We are unable to replant new trees because these trees are within a few inches next to a brick wall, we can only replace them with normal garden plants. TPO 344W.
