TPO worthy ?

[Gareth jones]

Can you not appeal on the grounds that it can't be enjoyed from a public place?

[Big 'Ammer]

Dean,

 

is it part of an area TPO,

 

is it an individual TPO'd tree,

 

or has it been TPO'd by the L.A. to stop you felling it after you giving a 211 Notice to fell?

[Dean Lofthouse]

Just refused it again " visual amenity"

 

It is in a position where it can cause harm

 

It is over a building

 

It's growth from an old stump

 

It has included bark on every stem

 

It has a hollow in the centre you can push a bar down into which is full of sludge and scum

 

It has an flat cross section with included bark at the rear tension side and an old peg at the front which is creating a rot pocket on the main stem compression side over the house

 

It's on a woodland edge bang on the boundary where the woodland is in serious need of a thin and maintainance

 

But hey, from a distance it looks good

[Amelanchier]

So appeal it then.

So appeal it then.

 

What do you reckon on the chances Tony ?

 

Spoke to the owner today and they would be happy with a heavy reduction

I wouldn't bother, IME the systems biased to the local authority. My last appeal failed, DESPITE the TO agreeing that the tree was declining more than he had previously recognized.

 

We took that one out as a new application.

[Amelanchier]

Well there's nothing to lose - doesn't cost anything bar a bit of your time. The inspector will re-determine the application afresh.
