APPROVED: BRIGG PROPERTY EXTENSIONS & PRUNING OF PROTECTED TREE


North Lincolnshire Council has approved property extensions in Brigg and also given consent to the pruning of a protected tree.
The local authority has granted planning permission to erect a single-storey rear extension and single-storey side garage extension at 73 Churchill Avenue (a property not far from Wrawby Road).
A council planning assessment report concluded that neither extension would raise an issue of overshadowing and overbearing to the adjacent properties.
A standard condition applies; work must start within three years.
Consent has also been given to prune a large Sequoia tree protected by the Tree Preservation (Brigg) Order 1971. Pictured above, it is located in the front garden of 17 St Clares Walk.
A council planning report said: "The request for pruning of the tree appears to be to reduce the potential risk that it may pose and this will enable the tree to be retained here to continue to give visual amenity to the location."
