Proposal

G1 Mixed species - Rear of the schoolReduce the Birch trees in the entrance to the service yard by approximately 2-3 metres to shape and cut back to clear the building to clear by 2 metres, crown lift the trees next to the gate to approximately 5.2m to allow vehicles to pass.Crown lift the trees in the back playground to clear ground level by approximately 3 metres.Cut back all the trees growing over the back foot path to as close to the fence line as possible (approx 2m from the branch tips max) and clear any street lights to allow full light cast over footway. Crown lift to facilitate 3m clearance from ground level full length of footpathFront car park areaCut back lateral growth to clear parking bays by 1.5m to a height of 5.2 on all aspects but only on the car park side of the trees (no height reduction) prune to clear sight lines for CCTV and clear lighting columns by 1.5-2m where possible and remove the large dead tree over the fence line towards the fire station to ground level. To clear the CCTV cameras and lighting units around the car park.Remove the three Poplar trees roadside to ground level and cut back all the trees overhanging the fence towards the highway (approx 2m from the branch tips max). The area where the Poplars are located is already heavily populated with mixed tree species so no replacements would be preferred but if necessary I would suggest x3 Silver Birch planted as close to the Poplars original location as possible located on the map already provided.
