  Tree A - Ash tree to be reduced by 50% - it currently touches overhead electrical cable and needs to be reduced to avoid damaging the cables. Tree B - cherry blossom tree - to be reduced by a third. Tree C - type upknown and seemingly self seeded and growing rapidly since we bough the house just under two years ago - it needs to be removed from an already crowded area before it becomes any bigger
