What the council wrote

T1 SycamoreCrown Reduction Specification: I propose a overall crown reduction of up to 2 to 3 metres in branch length (measured from the outer canopy tip back to suitable lateral growth points/four-inch stems). This equates to an approximate 15% to 20% proportional reduction of the overall crown volume. Targeted Limb Reduction Overextended branches overhanging the main lawn/garden area will be reduced by up to 3 metres to alleviate end-weight stress and mitigate the risk of branch failure. Deadwooding Full removal of all dead, diseased, and hollow branches will be carried out concurrently.
