Refused Three Rivers 21/0914/TPO Works to trees covered by a Tree Pres O

Works: Trees

Refused. Only the applicant can appeal, within the statutory time limit, and a revised scheme can be submitted instead.

Proposal

T1 - Beech - Lowest branches are in contact with the phone wire. Prune lowest branches to provide a 1.5m line clearance T2 - Sycamore - Tree over hangs the residents cars. The sap has caused engine damage to 2 cars since they have moved in. The cars have been written off due to the sap from the tree. Paper work can shown to prove this. T3 - Cedar - In the past the tree has dropped several limbs due to end weight. End weight to be reduced on over extended limbs (approx 1-1.5m) T4 - Beech - Lower branches are in contact with outhouse. Prune to provide a 1.5m clearance T5 - Douglas fir - Tree has a severe lean towards the neighbours garden. Customer is concerned about potential failure of the tree. The tree has dropped branches in the past and has very few live/active limbs without signs of decline (ie. deadwood)
