Proposal

ree T1 is an Arizona Cypress located just inside my boundary, adjacent to the driveway shared with number 12. It is a mature tree of 40+ years, 15-20m high and with 40cm diameter multiple trunk. Trees T2 and T3 are located on adjacent council land, both are Lime?, mature of 40+years, 20+m high and with 60cm trunks.Remove Tree T1 to alleviate overbearing presence and proximity, low amenity value, excessive branch fall, shading to properties and significant interference to satellite reception. Replace with a smaller specimen of mature height not exceeding 12m Reduce Trees T2 and T3 to reduce blanket shading and increasingly heavy presence due to absence of periodic surgery.
