Council planning record

1. Damaged Lilac tree: - Remove the main stem as it is infected with fungus and a danger to everybody close to it as it may fall any time. The 10 year old seedling (young tree) will remain and just pruned so it does not interfere with the neighbours property. 2. Magnolia tree - The main tree itself is pruned very well, however, the seedlings and offshoots of the main tree (around 1.5 meters in height) interfere with the public footpath. The seedling is planned to be removed. 3. T1 Ilex spp. (Holly) - We apply for this tree to be removed as it is in the way of a planned extension and it takes all light away from the little light we have (north facing garden). 4. T2 Malus spp. (crap apple)(tree) and T3 Cotoneaster spp. (Cotoneaster) (shrub) - We apply for these trees/shrubs to be removed as it takes all light away from the little light we have (north facing garden). 5. In exchange for the removal of T1-T3 we plan to place a Japanese cherry blossom tree to the left of T9 and in the front garden. 6. Pruning T4-T9 by a tree surgeon by 1 - 1.5 meters.
