What refusal means

The process from here

The council refused this application for the reasons set out on the decision notice, which the council portal holds in full. Only the applicant can appeal a refusal; the time limit runs from the decision date and is shorter for householder schemes.

Refusal does not prevent a fresh attempt. Applicants often address the reasons for refusal and resubmit, so a refused scheme is not necessarily the end of proposals for the site.

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.

    T1 - Maritime Pine - Fell to ground level and replace - The tree has a very large twisted and fractured limb, the other limb around it are also dead or very close to being dead, a large amount of tree leaning out over the road. With the fracture and deadwood removed it will leave the tree as a risk to the road. T2 - Maritime pine - Fell to ground level as the tree has died. T3 - Acacia - remove the broken limb - The tree has a limb which has failed into the lower fork of the tree. removal of the break will maintain safety in the garden. T4 - English Oak - Reduce and reshape by 1-2 metres all over - The tree has very poor formation at the base and a possible internal fracture. The reduction of the tree will still retain the tree within the landscape but also improve the safety of the garden by reduceing the sail area of the tree and therefor the stresses on the issues at the base of the tree. Please see the annotated photos.
