S26/1508 - Works to TPO Tree(s) Awaiting decision

Proposal

The two trees shown are now in considerable decline suffering from Ash die-back and frequently dropping limbs. We are seeking permission to reduce them down to hedge height to manage their decline safely. When dead we will remove and replant with a similar size but more resilient species.
