Council planning record

FELL self sown sycamore tree, labelled 1 on the plan (It is proposed to gradually remove the tree over a period of three years, to avoid heave, by first reducing it by 50%, then by 25% and a final 25%, leaving the stump in situ) - too close to 78 and is causing damage to the drains and appears unstable during windy weather- we would like to plant two smaller trees within the area to replace the sycamore. In addition, we will be planting a wide variety of other shrubs and plants which would improve the biodiversity of the area. There are many other trees located just behind the sycamore belonging to James Wolfe school, so removing this tree would not create a visual gap in the greenery of the neighbourhood.
