Official description
1. Group G2 - Mixed Species Work: Prune to clear buildings by 1m. Reason: Branches are growing too close to the building. Pruning will provide a minimum 1 metre clearance and help prevent branch contact, abrasion to the structure and future maintenance issues. 2. Group G6 - Mixed Species Work: Prune to provide 2m clearance from neighbouring property. Reason: Vegetation is encroaching towards adjacent land. The pruning is recommended to maintain a reasonable separation from neighbouring property and prevent nuisance or potential damage. 3. Tree 5 (Tag 733) - Pittosporum Work: Prune to clear adjacent building by at least 1m. Reason: The survey records that the tree is growing at an angle and is in contact with the adjacent building, with the crown close to the structure. Pruning is required to remove contact and establish an appropriate clearance. 4. Tree 11 (Tag 737) - Turkey Oak Work: Crown lift to provide 5.2m clearance over the adjacent road. Reason: Low branches extend over the highway. Crown lifting is required to achieve the statutory highway clearance of approximately 5.2 metres and reduce the risk of vehicle strikes 5. Tree 21 (Tag 736) - Pittosporum Work: Prune to provide 2m clearance from the building. Reason: The survey notes that the crown is close to the building/infrastructure. Pruning will establish a suitable clearance and reduce the potential for branch contact with the structure.
