No. : 20/06739/TPO Proposal : Statement of Reasons for Tree Preservation Order Application to fell and treat T1 Maple and T9 Sycamore at 82 Maida Vale, London W9 1PR TPOs: The County of London (St. Marylebone No. 13) Tree Preservation Order 1959 City of Westminster Tree Preservation Order 665 (2020) 1. The above tree works are proposed as a remedy to the differential foundation movement at the insured property and to ensure the long-term stability of the building. 2. The above tree works are proposed to limit the extent and need for expensive and disruptive engineering repair works at the insured property. In this instance, the estimated repair costs are likely to vary between £10,000 and £75,000, depending upon whether the trees can be removed or must remain. dcwklistco081103 32 3. The above tree works are proposed to limit the duration of any claim period and therefore allow the landowner their right to the peaceful enjoyment of their property. 4.

We are satisfied that the evidence obtained following completion of our Arboricultural Implication Assessment report, completed 18th May 2020, clearly links the Maple (T1) and Sycamore (T9) as the cause of damage to the risk address. 6. We would highlight that the Bay Laurel tree referred to as T7 in the arboricultural report provided was felled in early 2020. 7. Please note that "City of Westminster Tree Preservation Order 665 (2020)", the order that covers Sycamore T9, is a temporary order at this time. This application should therefore be considered an objection to the confirmation of the order. The Council's formal notice advising the placement of the order is included with this submission. 8.
