Therefore, the number of ‘high’ days has increased in comparison to all other years.8It is not uncommon for approval to be granted for alternate work to what was applied for, ie pruning rather the removal. Also, aspreviously advised, where space is insufficient, more than one permit may be required for an application.9It must be noted that a significant number of these complaints were made by the same complainants.Delivery Program 2009-2012 | 51
