Application Notes:
In light of the number of Ash trees lost to Ash dieback recently, the Town Council feels all healthy specimens should be preserved where possible. They respectfully request that Shropshire Council’s Tree Officer visits the site and provides his advice to determine if the removal of the Ash tree is the only option. If the works are granted, Members would wish to be assured that in light of Government Guidance on the treatment of Ash Trees any removal and disposal will be dealt with in accordance with such guidelines.
