Sent to Bromley Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7761899.
I am writing to formally raise a complaint regarding the persistent issue of excessive leaf debris caused by overgrown trees near my property at [Your Address].
Despite previous requests for the trees to be trimmed or cut back, no action has been taken. As a result, I am experiencing the following ongoing problems: • Large volumes of leaves entering the property through open windows, making it difficult to ventilate the home. • Heavy leaf fall accumulating in both the front and back garden. • Damage caused to my vehicle from falling debris while parked on the driveway.

This tree has been inspected and is not considered to require remedial works at this time. Bromley will only undertake works to a tree for an identified health & safety or highway obstruction issue. The situation will be reviewed cyclically and any required action will be addressed within a future works programme.
