TPO not pto

Thank you spelling police for your assistance. 

I see 90% of people on this site are tree huggers.....facts are its my land my tree, I wouldn't go into some ones home and tell them what todo!, so why should any body have the right to tell me. 

Tree huggers are the biggest hypocrites going....bet you all wipe your arse with tissue 🤣🙄

It will be interesting to see how in pans out.

 

I haven't seen the tree or location in person (obviously) but my first course of action would always be to seek some form of management/ remedial action with the help of a local arb firm if needed, rather than resort to drastic action like this.

 

If the action you have taken was warranted for the reasons you state then why not get a local arb firm to produce a report on that basis?

 

You'd have moved forward better using that approach IMO...

It's all ifs and buts now unfortunately. If I started from the beginning people in here wouldn't be so quick to judge.....3 years fighting the council to maintain 15 trees on my street that have not been touch for 10 years...then  to be told oh well its not our responsibility its an act of god, when a branch over grown in to my airspace landed on my car causing 2.5k worth of damages, I now have two 8 inch holes in my garage roof, to the rear of my property a pto tree has cracked all my wall....then I have neighbours who have had broken windows on cars dents and so on, 1 of them had a tree grow that big up the side of his house from council land he had zero light in his bedroom for 8 years, I actually help them get it removed by going to the local paper. 

all I wanted was them to be maintain trees accordingly but my council are unreal and a law to them selves.....it speaks volumes when all of my neighbours want this tree gone.

Photos?
In many months time the photos will be out of date.
Your tree will have changed.
Dead standing trees are very dangerous.
Especially in a urban environment.
Very expensive to remove compared to a living tree.
And your tree surgeon knows this.
Good luck

Yes he is aware of this, hence why his coming out to do a full inspection... if he confirms its a good chance I've killed it and can become dangerous as the tree owner I have the responsibility to remove a tree that will become dangerous regardless of a pto....belongs I put this in an email to the council on why it's been removed they don't have a case. Especially if the report is from a local reputable company.

Has the council seen the tree or pics since?

 

They took the photos them selves Friday and came out today to hand deliver the notice to myself and several neighbours.....which all of them are protesting the order as ive already said its causing mass damage to there property to. 

Just now, Puffingbilly413 said:

Purely theoretically - that would need to be established.  Keep us posted!

Evidence of damage was taken Friday pto put on today. But yes I will let you know the outcome....I did offer to remove and replace with a smaller tree I can maintain, just been a battle now for 3weeks lol

That was before the damage...
Think you’ll find the next quote considerably higher, what with the crane hire now needed.
Ouch.

Tree sergeon has seen photos no need for the crane either way I would pay ££££ as my neighbours have been injured due to this tree. Who I may add is an OAP...so a tree or an old lady I would rather look after them then a poxy tree

First one that popped up:

 

Man who breached tree preservation order during 'driveway construction' is fined

WWW.BOURNEMOUTHECHO.CO.UK

---

A MAN who was responsible for damage being caused to a protected tree "during the construction of a new driveway"...

Like I said - stand by...depends how much cash your local authority has to pursue it...

My council is broke and they have no legal ground on me, the land and tree I now own and the damage was done before the order was put on.

Alright flower carm down, I'm not abusing any 1 so no need to get all excitable behind your keyboard..

Well if the OP now goes and harms the tree further he had better hope that the local Tree Officer doesn't read this thread, as the evidence of the extra damage will be nicely presented.

Well this is the thing I wont be doing any more damage I have hacked it more and cut into it but I did that the week end just gone. I am now going legal route as they said to me 18 months ago they will cut the tree down for £1200 but now  own the land and tree they want to protect it....unreal tbh

This has to be trolling, surely?

 

@Steve Bullman

I'm not trolling I am just seeing if I have done enough that the tree will die. So local council can't keep the pto on the tree as they put the pto on it even seeing that to it

Surely you could of just had it cut back crown reduction and problem roots cut am just a joiner am sure a lot of professionals on here will advise better what you could of dun to save the tree and your property shame to see a healthy oak being slaughtered.shouldent of bought your house really if you didn't like the tree 

Well I loved the house the local authority used to own the tree and land beside my house, ive recently purchased the land and tree....the local authority is at fault for letting this oak grow to 60ft. It's 4ft away from my garage a ft away from a path then narrow road then over grows drive ways and all the neighbours hate it due to the damage its causing so we have all Agreeed to cut it back or cut it down

The damage was done by myself so I'm the c##t 🤣

My reasons are I own the land and tree,, the oak has become that big it needs to be taken down, it's causing damage to my garages and surrounding houses and cars. No matter if I cut back the branches it will be come un stable words of 3 tree sergeons....so I went to have it removed but the local council have put an emergency pto on the tree 😒 causing me drastic action this was done before the order was in place.

Not going to be a good outcome. Animals. 

So the tree could survive?

Hi I'm after some advice, is this oak tree dieing ? If so will it be dangerous any time soon? This was recently done in the last week. 

Thank you
