Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
T1: Sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus) - Carry out a cyclical crown management operation by removing approximately 7-8 years of regrowth back to the previous established pollard points (re-pollarding). The works will reinstate the original pollard framework and manage overall crown size. All pruning cuts will be made at appropriate positions to maintain structural integrity and promote healthy, sustainable regrowth. The works will be undertaken sympathetically to retain crown continuity and minimise physiological stress. All works to be undertaken by competent arborists, with appropriate safety measures in place. All arisings to be cleared and removed from site on completion. All works to be carried out in accordance with BS39982010 - Tree Work Recommendations. Reason for works: General tree maintenance - To allow more light into the property
