Tree removal
A proposal has been submitted to remove several trees from the rear garden of a flat at 29 Plymouth Road.
The application includes the removal of Sycamore Maple, European Maple, and European Ash trees located close to boundary walls, as shown in a submitted plan.
The trees are described as small and clustered, and are said to lack significant amenity or landscape value.
The applicant suggests that removing the trees will help prevent damage to the boundary wall, improve the garden’s appearance, and simplify maintenance.
They add that the works are intended for practical and safety reasons, and are not expected to harm the area’s character.
Substation details
A discharge of conditions application has been submitted for land adjacent to Oak Court, Myrtle Close.
This relates to a previously approved hybrid application for extra-care accommodation and outline permission for residential development.
The new submission concerns the details of a substation on the site’s southern boundary, including its housing and means of enclosure.
This condition will ensure that the impacts in respect of visual and neighbour amenity are appropriate.
