Council sourceReduction on an established holly tree reducing the height by about 3M and shaping. Removal of an Eucalyptus Tree. 1. The Holly tree is nearly the height of the House and needs a reduction as it is also starting to over hang the boundary wall and encroach on the road. 2. The Eucalyptus tree has been planted next to a feature wall on the lower driveway of the property. The tree is now established and now threatening to damage the wall due to the lean it has and the rapid growth of the tree. The proposal is to remove the tree before the wall is damaged.
