Its removal is therefore a practical managementdecision to resolve persistent issues affecting my property, rather than a proposalmade for reasons of altering the wider landscape or greenbelt character.Replacement planting can be provided where required, using appropriate speciesthat will maintain local amenity without causing future conflicts.
