Roseland House 5 South Hill Upton Grey Hampshire RG25 2SH
Proposal
My (4 South Hill) next door neighbours (5 South Hill) Ash tree canope needs to be reduced. It is growing far too low over my liquid gas tank and my gas supplier has said that the branches need to be 20ft above my tank because of the fire risk. They can refuse to deliver gas to me. My neighbour, (5 South Hill) has agreed to give the tree surgeon access to his tree, in order to prune the common Ash, lower canopy, from over the gas storage, to give the required safety clearance.

What a grant of permission means
The process from here
Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.
Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.
About trees applications
How this application type works
Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.
