T1 Silver Birch - Remove and replace with Canadensis Spring Glory T2 Liquidambar - Remove and replace with Lamckii "Snowberry" T3 Liquidambar - Remove and replace with Laevis Snowflakes T4 Liquidambar - Remove and replace with Grandiflora Ballerina The specific replacement trees have been chosen as varieties of Amelanchier. Reasons for works: 1. Concerns about the Existing Trees ? Size and Growth: The current trees are semi-mature and are likely to grow significantly larger, which may: ? Outgrow the space available in the area. ? Pose a long-term risk to nearby structures, pathways, or utilities due to root systems or overhanging branches. ? Health and Safety Risks: ? The trees may present potential hazards, such as falling branches during storms or high winds. ? Impact on Light and Surroundings: ? The existing trees are blocking light to nearby properties and the communal area negatively impacting the enjoyment and use of the space. 2. Proposed Replacement Plan ? Smaller Flowering Amelanchiers: ? The chosen replacement trees have been carefully selected to ensure they remain smaller in size at maturity, mitigating the risks associated with large trees in this area. ? Biodiversity and Aesthetics: ? These flowering trees will enhance the local environment, supporting biodiversity by providing nectar and pollen for bees and other pollinators. ? They will improve the visual appeal of the area, contributing positively to the character of the landscape. 3. Commitment to Replanting and Environmental Responsibility ? One-for-One Replacement: ? For every tree felled, a new tree will be planted, ensuring no net loss to the tree population in the area. ? Sustainable Management: ? The proposed trees will require less maintenance and are more suited to the location, reducing future need for pruning or potential removal. ? Community and Environmental Considerations: ? The replacements will align with community goals of maintaining green spaces while...

I'm writing today to apply for a 5 day order on a dead cedar tree The tree is situated at the front of the drive before you pull into the property, it targets the road side foot path and also the entrance to the property. The tree has been dying for a number of years from honey fungus that was identified by a third party contractor years ago. The tree is now completely dead and the client has instructed us to remove the tree with your consent.

24 Court Road Torquay TQ2 6SE
T001 - 1x Common ash (Fraxinus excelsior) - Ash Dieback Health Class 4: 0% to 25% Poor - 1 Year - Pollard 3 limbs back to the main union with the finishing cuts being made at 9m from ground level. T001 is protected by a woodland tree preservation order: 1971.014 however, the recommendation for removal is considered good silvicultural practice due to the tree being diseased and in severe decline. It will encourage woodland regeneration making space for more resilient species, and biodiversity. The controlled removal of the tree will remove the risk of failure over the garden and fence area. There is argument to leave a standing monolith for ecological purpose, if this is the case it should not be left within falling distance of garden area to 24 Court Road. The removal of T001 will have a minimal impact on the overall woodland amenity value and will quickly be replaced with regeneration.

Glenroy Parkhill Road Torquay TQ1 2DT
T1. English oak, Quercus robur. T1 is growing in the garden of Glenroy as shown on map. It has been in bad health for a number of years now shedding leaves early, and signs of crown thinning, despite a hard reduction a few years ago. This year has put out fruiting bodies for Meripilus Giganteus. these can be seen it pictures although they have turned black. there is also severe decay in the stem of the tree from ground level to about 2 metres. this cavity creating a weak point in the tree making it likely to fail. this can also be seen in pictures. I propose to dismantle T1 to ground level and re plant another quercus robur in another area of the garden in order to avoid it getting infected with the existing Meripilus Giganteus.

Crown dieback to approximately 50%, but 100% on southern side. Internal decay detected by hammer acoustic test. Poor unions ? included bark. Limb failure into road considered.

Pine (T1) - fell due to its significant lean toward the dwellings situated to the southeast. Additionally, the lower portion of the stem obstructs access to the electric gate control box, which impedes maintenance and emergency access. Following the mechanical grinding of the stump, it is recommended that the area be replanted with Turkish Hazel or species from the genus Sorbus. T1 is located within a restricted area that is surrounded by tarmac.
