Council planning record

See attached map for location of treesAt the request of the residents at no.14 and no.18 I am applying to remove t1, cherry and t2 conifer. The surface roots of the cherry have created a trip hazard for elderly residents and I am looking to get these ground out if permission to remove the trees is granted. The conifer holds no value to the residents and is suppressed under the cherry.
