Decision NoticePlanning conditions
- At the time of inspection, which was from the ground only, there was no evidence of any significant structural defects or disease that would present an imminent risk to persons/property, and no evidence has been provided to support the applicant’s assumption that the tree presents a danger to public health. The Council is satisfied that the application is not justified in respect of the reasons put forward.
