What happens while it is decided

The process from here

This application is with Bradford for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.

The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.

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.
