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 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.

BH2025/02932 Granted
79 Beaconsfield Villas Brighton BN1 6HF
The application: T1 - A large Weeping Ash (Fraxinus Excelsior 'Pendula') which has perished, located in the center of the garden. The ash threatens a neighboring Hazel T2 (Corylus Avellana) and is dropping substantial dead wood in strong winds. Many of the branches were also victim to squirrel damage prior to the tree dying. The owner of the tree is concerned with the instability and unpredictability of its now dead extremities especially due to the tree's central position in the garden. I have advised to monolith, rather than fell, as after inspection I didn't notice any rot or decay around the base, nor anything else that may compromise the integrity of the lower trunk; safe to monolith for habitat.
