Elderflower tree (red square marked as '1' on location map). A structural survey of a large crack in our garage identified the elderflower tree as the root cause of instability in the foundations, and its removal as critical to avoid further damage. The structural survey comments are included with the application. After the removal is completed and 6 months have passed, we can then begin remediation work to the large crack. N.B. that the structural engineer identified the overgrown scrub in the area marked by the yellow box on the location map as also being a risk to the foundations of the garage row. This is on Crown Lands, and there has been nobody managing or caretaking for this land in 18 months+ since the prior lease-holder of the land finished their tenancy, leaving it to become somewhat out of control and now also impacting our garage stability. We are unsure of who or how to seek a solution for this issue.
