Planning application

Long Farthings 20 Church End Haddenham Buckinghamshire HP17 8AE
Proposal
G1 Yew x2 - Canopy Reduction - Reduce the overall height of both trees by up to 1.5 metres. Reduce the lateral spread of the foremost tree by up to 1.5 metres, from the garden wall around to where its crown meets that of the adjacent tree. On the second tree, nearest the Whitebeam, reduce the overextended lateral growth by up to 2 metres to align with the spread reduction carried out on the first tree. T2 Magnolia - Crown Reduction - Reduce the overall height of the tree by up to 1.75 metres, bringing the crown down to approximately the level of the bottom of the top windowsill. Additionally, reduce the lateral spread towards the property by up to 1.5 metres to provide a minimum clearance of 1 metre between the tree and the roof. Further reduce the lateral spread extending over the neighbouring garden by up to 1.5 metres, and carry out a crown lift to 3 metres above ground level to provide adequate clearance from the boundary wall and the neighbouring roof. T3 Maple - Halo Pruning - Carry out halo pruning around the Cut-leaf Copper Beech by selectively reducing branches extending towards the Copper Beech by up to 2 metres, providing sufficient space for it to establish and develop naturally. Additionally, reduce the lateral branch extending over the neighbouring property by up to 2 metres to lessen encroachment into the adjacent garden.

What happens while it is decided
The process from here
This application is with Buckinghamshire 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.
