Council planning record

I would like to chop down and remove the Horse Chestnut, the centre of the three trees pictured, marked as "Trees to cut" in the attached sketch. The trees are in very close proximity, so much so that the centre tree will certainly kill the surrounding trees (a Cherry and an Elm). All trees are early growth with trunks ~7cm across.
