Planning application
The Cottage The Green Croxley Green Rickmansworth Hertfordshire WD3 3AN
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
To fell and remove the leylandi conifer trees on boundary of property. The trees on the property are causing a lack of light preventing any grass from growing. They are also causing uneven paving which is causing problems with pedestrians and could lead to a serious accident occurring, which could lead to accident claims the owner wishes to avoid. There is also a worry of mould increasing in the cottages (neighbouring) due to the lack of sunlight. The applicant is planning on replanting conifers/large hedges to replace.
