Proposal
Reduce the purple leaf plumb tree on the front drive of 35 Meadow Close by one third. See sketch plan 1. The tree has grown significantly since the last reduction and I am concerned about the possibility of subsistence as it is close to the house and the paving at the base of the tree is lifting.
