Decision & conditions
Appeal Decision 9958 T_23_96120 PL_Final DecisionPlanning conditions
- REFUSE: 1 no. Acacia (T1) - Remove.
- Reason: The proposed work is considered unjustified. The works would thus result in an adverse impact upon the visual amenity, ecology and wildlife and screening of the surrounding area.
- APPEAL CONDITIONS (1) The works hereby permitted shall be implemented within two years from the date of this decision. (2) A replacement tree shall be planted in the first planting season immediately following the removal of the tree unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Council. The replacement tree shall be of heavy standard in size with a girth no less than 14cm. The tree shall be planted in accordance with the recommendations in BS 8545:2014 Trees – from nursery to independence in the landscape. Details of replacement planting (including quantity, species, position, size and a time frame for completion) must be submitted and approved by the Council. (3) If within five years from the date of planting of that tree, or any tree planted in replacement, it is removed, uprooted, destroyed, dies or becomes, in the opinion of the Council, seriously damaged or defective, another tree of the same species and size shall be planted at the same place unless the Council gives its written approval to any variation.
