A tree-mendous result
4:10pm Wednesday 18th April 2012 in Letters
Sir – I’d like to thank the Witney Town Council.
Myself and some other concerned long-term residents of Burwell Meadow were becoming increasingly concerned for our home foundations from some trees which we believe were planted too close to our properties, and which were inappropriate to this site.
The council listened to our concerns and ratified a decision to remove the trees at its full council meeting this month.
I’d like to thank, in particular, councillor Ben Woodruff who took the time to meet us on several occasions to understand our concerns, and to Chrissie Curry who also took the time for a site visit.
Fiona Basson, Burwell Meadow, Witney
