Remove one (1) Liquidambar from rear garden on southern boundary and replace with one (1) local native tree from Council’s Preferred Tree list, of minimum 45L pot size, growing to a mature height greater than 5metres, anywhere on the property within one (1) month of removal. This tree has lost several large and small branches over the last three (3) years. Its canopy has been pruned heavily away from the neighbour’s property, the retaining wall between the two property has cracks. There is evidence of included bark between the tree’s two main leaders, the likelihood of codominant stem failure is possible. To prune this tree to lighten the wind load on the codominant stem would require a large amount to be removed, leaving it as a poor specimen. This tree presents an unacceptable level of risk to the residence.
