Proposal

FRONT: ONE Magnolia (T1)(ht.4m) LATERAL REDUCE radius by 3.9m from 4m on south compass point, CROWN THIN by 30%. Reason: clearance from building, alleviate light issues and potential damage to building.Informative A: while overhanging vegetation is proposed to be cut back to near the property boundary of no.72 with no.70, for amenity, tree aesthetics and tree health a lesser crown reduction on the south compass and lesser thin is encouraged to appropriate prune points to maintain a balanced crown within the frontage setting while managing clearance from windows. Informative B: a 6-week notice for the Magnolia has also been submitted by the tree owner (no.70) ref DC/25/140157, for height reduction by 1m from 4m to ht.3m and lateral reduction of radius by 1.5m from 4m to 2.5m on the south compass overhanging the front garden of no.72, to enable the Magnolia's canopy to re-establish after the removal of the adjacent conifer last year, ref DC/24/137231.Informative C: for any work to a neighbour's tree to which the council has no objection, it is for the applicant to get any necessary permission from the tree owner before carrying out the work beyond the applicant's boundary, (eg.for access onto a neighbour's land, or work within a neighbour's boundary).
