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 full applications applications
How this application type works
A full application seeks permission for a complete, detailed proposal in one go: siting, design, access and landscaping are all fixed at this stage. It is the standard route for new buildings, conversions and changes of use. The statutory target is eight weeks for smaller schemes and thirteen weeks for major development, though complex cases often take longer by agreement.

Tree T138 at the entrance to , Palm Hills Estate , London Road , Bracknell , RG12 9TN
The tree is identified as T138 in the approved Arboricultural Impact Assessment and Tree Condition Survey produced by ‘Ruskins Tree Consultancy’ in April 2020 ref. 0420-8121 Rev1. The tree a cat C2 oak is shown in the photos contained in the ACD report and is located north of the electricity substation on the access to the residential development of Palm Hills. It is recommended that the tree is removed as soon as possible with sections of deadwood located above the footpath and in proximity to the road. A replacement semi mature tree is proposed in its place. The replacement tree is not proposed in the same location due to the potential of ‘sudden oak death’ affecting the new oak, so instead we have shown a replacement semi mature Lime in the same location.
