Planning application
11 Verona Court 68 St James Drive SW12 8SX
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
(TPO 134/2001) Front of Verona Court T1 (T9)- Cherry: Reduce and reshape crown by up to 1.5 metres allowing 2 metres clearance on building side, remove dead and diseased wood. T2 (T8) - Cherry: Reduce and reshape crown by up to 1.5 metres allowing 2 metres clearance on building side, remove dead and diseased wood. T3 (T7) - Cherry: Reduce and reshape crown by up to 1.5 metres allowing 2 metres clearance on building side, remove dead and diseased wood. T4 (T6) - Cherry: Reduce and reshape crown by up to 1.5 metres allowing 2 metres clearance on building side, remove dead and diseased wood. The proposed works will not reduce the amenity value of the tree and will allow sustainable tree management in the long term. The works are part of a regular maintenance program to retain the tree at a suitable size for its location. It is the cause of an unreasonable amount of shade to the front aspect of the building.
