Council sourceRequest Permission for the removal of Cypress to ground level. The Cypress is within 6-8 ft of the house and is around 40ft tall. Homeowner would like a removal due to the close proximity to their property and the risk of structural damage as the tree is now reaching a diameter almost as big as the hole around it. The tree appears to have little Aesthetic impact on the surrounding area, therefore I agree with the homeowner in this circumstance. We also touched on potential smaller more manageable potted trees in replacement.
