Council planning record

T1 - Lime Tree: Proposed FellThe Lime tree in question is showing signs of severe decline. It exhibits a significant wound at its base, with a scar extending up to approximately 4 feet. Additionally, there is a large dead section within the canopy, and mushrooms have been observed at the base of the tree, indicating potential internal decay.Given the tree's location near Main Road, Otterbourne, and its close proximity to a busy footpath and crossing to Nisa, there is an elevated risk of harm to the public. Considering the health of the tree and the safety concerns, the most appropriate course of action would be to remove the tree and replant a suitable replacement.
