Applications to Fell or Prune Trees (P620D) pdf icon PDF 36 KB

Additional documents:

Minutes:

*The Development Management and Conservation Manager reported that pursuant to the powers delegated to him he had determined the under-mentioned applications in respect of:-

 

 

(a)   The felling and pruning of trees:-

 

CHE/18/00016/TPO

Consent is refused to the felling of two trees because there is insufficient evidence to link the two trees to the damage to the main dwelling and although it is accepted that the damage to the detached garage is related to the trees the garage was constructed with very shallow foundations to a thickness of 100mm and not to the specifications approved for planning application CHE/785/419 which was granted consent in 1985.

 

 

CHE/18/00123/TPO

Consent is granted to the felling of one Ash tree with a condition to plant an Oak tree as a replacement in the next available planting season. An advice note has also been attached to survey the tree for bats due to the cavities in the tree.

 

 

CHE/18/00077/TPO

Consent is granted to the reduction of branches growing towards 4 Ennerdale Crescent to give a 2 metre clearance from the structure pruning back to suitable replacement branches.

 

 

CHE/18/00078/TPO

Consent is granted to the reduction of branches growing towards 2 Ennerdale Crescent to give a 2 metre clearance from the structure pruning back to suitable replacement branches.

 

 

CHE/18/00054/TPO

 

 

 

 

CHE/18/00051/TPO

 

Consent is granted to the crown lifting of the tree by 3 metres pruning back to suitable replacement branches and leaving a well-balanced crown.

 

Consent is refused to the coppicing of two of the four Ash trees because there is no justification for their removal/coppicing to 30cm in height and which would leave a large gap in the group of trees which was protected as a screen and wildlife corridor for the new development.

 

Consent is granted to the coppicing of two Ash stems which are growing from a decayed stem for safety reasons. Although they are not considered to be dangerous at the present time, future growth could lead to them failing at the base.
