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.

Franklin 25 Easby Drive Ilkley West Yorkshire LS29 9AZ
T1 - Sycamore Tree - Reduce the overall height of the tree by approximately 7.5 metres (25 ft), from approximately 15 metres (50 ft) to a finished height of approximately 7.5 metres (25 ft). Works to be carried out by reduction pruning to suitable growth points, maintaining a balanced crown and natural shape - The tree has become disproportionately large for its location and is causing nuisance to the neighbouring property. Its height and canopy are contributing to excessive shading and loss of natural light, and the tree is impacting gutters through the accumulation of leaf litter and small branch debris. The proposed reduction will retain the tree as an important landscape feature and privacy screen whilst reducing its dominance and bringing it to a more appropriate size for its surroundings. The works will help ensure the long-term retention of the tree within the site while reducing its impact on adjacent residential properties.
