Council milestones and published deadlines. A deadline passing does not confirm a decision.
Cherry Tree in my front garden needs shaping and pruning back - application is for a maximum of 25% off crown and 20% off width that will bring height below the level of the roof, and the width reduction will prevent the tree cutting out the light to my neighbours front window and manage branches overhanging the street. There are no other tree in the front garden, the tree is inside the wall boundary of my front garden as clearly shown in the attached photos. There is no preservation notice in place on my tree.
