Planning application
Marchmount Burfield Road Chorleywood Hertfordshire WD3 5NS
Works: Trees
Decided. The decision notice on the council portal carries the outcome in full, including any conditions.
Proposal
T1- Remove Arizona Cypress. The tree is in severe decline with only 20-25% live foliage. There are a number of storm damaged branches within the canopy. Removal of dead and damaged branches would leave a sparse and un-functional canopy. Due to the over all condition of the tree, it would be best to remove and replant. I would recommend planting of a Sorbus to replace the Cypress giving a tree with good amenity value.
