What the council wrote
1 western red cedar (multi-stemmed) and 1 macrocarpa (from the 'new' cemetery') - Remove. Reason: Having a detrimental impact on the graves in the vicinity. Planted in inappropriate locations and in close proximity. If retained, future management of the graves will be both technically challenging and expensive.Mature holm oak - Removal of 1 low-hanging limb.Reason: The limb is now superfluous and can be removed without negative consequences.
