Planning application
25/0788/TTCA
Public Car Park Great Eastern Street Cambridge Cambridgeshire
Proposal
TR02 - Plane (London) (Platanus x hispanica) - Crown lifted to give 5m clearance above ground level, ie. 5m from the level of the footway and up to the back edge of the footway. I wish this to be a repeat operation at intervals for 10 years (ie. I don't wish the permission to default to two years). This is because Cambridgeshire County Council have installed road signs and enforcement cameras as part of the Mill Road Bus Gate scheme. Pruning works are to clear low branches above height of signs and camera sight lines.
As published by the council, reference 25/0788/TTCA

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