Consultation About A Dying Tree on Standon Road adjacent 78 (our reference 12044879)

Overview

A Malus sylvestris (commonly known as a Crab Apple Tree) has been identified adjacent to 78 Standon Drive as dying

An assessment carried out by our tree experts noticed that the tree's lower trunk has a historical wound which has developed into significant decay.

Tree is deemed to be likely fail in near future.

Once removed, we propose to replace the tree with a Betula ermanii (Ermann Birch) in the same location but slightly further away from the lighting column to prevent any future issues with spread of light.

Why your views matter

The Sheffield Tree Partnership have developed the draft Sheffield Street Tree Partnership Working Strategy.  This sets out our commitment to explain to local residents the reasons behind decisions to remove trees, and provide the opportunity to challenge these decisions through an open and transparent process.

A copy of the draft strategy is available at: https://www.wildsheffield.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/FINAL-Sheffield-Street-Tree-Partnership-Working-Strategy-July-2020.pdf
