  24. Decision MadeP20/S3802/TCA

    1. Poplar - has grown very tall and will grow more. it is close to the boundary with the Weller family and poses a potential risk in high winds. It is in an exposed position. The tree is much taller than expected and unstable. Request removal. 2. Walnut - leaning heavily to one side, probably due to excessive weight of branches. Clearly unstable and a serious risk. Request: remove a number of heavy and large branches on the leaning side. Crown thinning. 3. Holm Oak - close to boundary. Blocking light to neighbour's property and overhanging. Request: reduce crown by 1/2. 4. Field Maple - next to Holm Oak. Same problem. Too close to the boundary and so causing a nuisance to the adjoining property. Request: reduce crown by 1/2. 5. Eucalyptus - has grown much taller than expected. Close to neighbour's house and could be a risk in high winds. We have noticed the eucalyptus is rather shallow rooted and vulnerable to high winds. Request: reduce crown by 1/2. 6. White Poplar - again much taller than intended, close to neighbour's property, and hence a risk in high winds of toppling over. Request: removal. 7. Apple tree: an ancient apple tree, but now unstable due to age and hollowing of the trunk. Top section at risk of falling. Request: crown reduction by approx 1/3. 8. Two Ash: both trees were crown reduced about 5 years ago. Both have re-grown substantially. We are concerned at the stability of both, given their age and the weight they bear. Both are on the boundary and could be a risk to our neighbours. Request: crown reduction by approx 1/3. The trees have been inspected by a professional arborist, Mr G Downs, he has advised us in making the above requests.

These figures describe applications collected by PlanningTrack for South Oxfordshire District Council, across all dates currently available. They are a partial dataset, rather than an authority-wide performance measure. The date range does not establish continuous historical coverage.

The approval percentage is approved records divided by approved plus refused records. Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded. No percentage is shown until there is an approved or refused record.
