Plan to reduce the crown of a Copper Beech by 1.5m and remove a Betula Jacquemontii to ground level due to its nuisance location and damage to nearby properties.
Proposal as recorded
T1 Copper Beech - Reduce the crown by about 1.5m all around, removing any regrowth from the previous reduction. Ensure enough growth remains to avoid impacting next year's development. TPO2025_101 SERVED T2 Betula Jacquemontii - The tree needs to be removed to ground level, with the stump ground out. It's a mature specimen but has become a nuisance due to its location between two properties. Its branches are damaging the render and roof tiles of No. 5 Wayside Crescent. Tree reduction isn't a viable option because there are no suitable reduction points, and it would only lead to more regrowth and potential rot.
