Carry out a selective thin of all stems within the group and coppice selected stems to a height of 20cm above ground level to allow for natural regeneration. The ratio of trees being coppiced to pollarded is as follows: 70:30 % The trees to be retained will be pollarded to approximately 5m (the height of the previous cut points) and retained as pollards and maintained in a cyclical pollarding cycle to reduce the risk of limb failures as is currently being experienced.G2 - 4x Eucalyptus Coppice to 20cm above ground level.G3 - 3x Eucalyptus Coppice to 20cm above ground level.

These figures describe applications collected by PlanningTrack for Newark and Sherwood District Council, across all dates currently available. They are a partial dataset, rather than an authority-wide performance measure. The date range does not establish continuous historical coverage.

The approval percentage is approved records divided by approved plus refused records. Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded. No percentage is shown until there is an approved or refused record.
