View council mapT4 Apple tree has become a source of concern due to the excessive waste it generates. The constant falling of debris, including apples and leaves poses a significant risk to the neighboring property, causing inconvenience and potential damage to their garden. To ensure the harmony and well-being of the local community, it is crucial to address this issue promptly. Considering the circumstances, I propose to cut back the apple tree neatened up and shaped reducing by 1-2m to an appropriate size that minimizes the waste and potential hazards. This action will allow for the tree's preservation while mitigating any negative impact on the neighboring property.T1 Poplar, reduced in size from to 11m and crown reduction to shape. The height of the poplar tree is far too large for a residential garden and has created a significant obstacle to sunlight required for the healthy growth of flowers and plants in my garden. And is struggling to flourish, as well as the concern of potential risks. Additionally, the tree's current state, overwhelmed with vines, may be posing a threat to both its own health and the surrounding vegetation. To ensure the vitality of the garden and promote a thriving ecosystem, I believe it is essential to trim back the poplar tree. I propose to cut back the poplar tree to a suitable height that allows for the unhindered passage of sunlight to my garden. By reducing the tree's height and carefully removing the vines, we can create a more favorable environment for plant growth. It has also come to my attention that invasive vines have spread uncontrollably, entangling themselves around the native vegetation and trees. This growth poses a threat to the health and growth of the existing trees and plants, and it is negatively impacting the balance of the area. I am eager to resolve this matter promptly. I would appreciate clarification on whether permission is needed and apply for it if required.
