Planning application

Minute House 35 High Street Rickmansworth Hertfordshire WD3 1ET

Granted Three Rivers 23/0342/TPO Works to trees covered by a Tree Pres O

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

Crown thin the only tree on property - 20% .A sycamore with TPO. Note same application for works that have previously approved & carried out in 2014 under ref 14/0645/TPO Note the tree has large branches which overhang the adjacent public carpark and our neighbouring property 37 High St. Our neighbours have complained that branches have fallen in high winds. It is our opinion that the tree is a hazard to users of said carpark.. Previous applications to fell the tree have been declined, hence our application to continue to thin
