Overgrown tree

Sent to Peterborough City Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2689550.
There’s two over grown trees, at the back of 9/10 paynesholm, one of which is in the garden of a council property. These tree’s are blocking natural day light and sunlight. One tree grows berries and is encouraging rats at the area. There is also hanging branches into private gardens which is causing debris and mess in children’s play areas.

Thanks for your enquiry regarding a council-owned tree.
In accordance with the Peterborough Tree & Woodland Strategy 2018-2028, a qualified tree surveyor has visited the site, assessed your request and concluded that there is no need to undertake tree works.
We don't prune or remove council-owned trees because they are considered too big or too tall unless it is deemed to be dangerous.
All council-owned trees are surveyed by a qualified surveyor for safety every one-to-five years, depending on how much the area surrounding them is used. We also carry out maintenance work if it's needed.
For further information please read the Peterborough Tree & Woodland Strategy 2018-2028
I trust this answers your enquiry, however, should you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact Aragon Direct Services.
