Awaiting decision Uttlesford UTT/26/1187/TCA Tree Works Notification

Works: Trees

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

T1 - Sycamore - Reduction by 4m in height and shape the sides including branch length reduction of 2- 3m on the sides. Tree is causing lack of light to properties and there is concern that this tree will become bigger and become unstable as it is on the bank of a stream.

As published by the council, reference UTT/26/1187/TCA
