QUESTION NO. 12

QUESTION: Councillor W. Carey

To ask the Chief Executive if council can prune the grove of trees at Lindisfarne Grove. These trees are placed between elderly residents accommodation and the height of these trees above the bungalow's is causing great stress for the residents here.

REPLY:

Lindisfarne Grove was last listed on the Council 2020-2022 Tree Maintenance Programme.  Works were conducted and completed on-site in January 2022. The works included crown reduction and crown lifting.

The trees in question have been inspected recently and further tree maintenance works have been identified. These works include crown reduction of the trees and removal of one tree. These works have been assigned to a contractor and will be prioritised accordingly.
