The process from here
The council refused this application for the reasons set out on the decision notice, which the council portal holds in full. Only the applicant can appeal a refusal; the time limit runs from the decision date and is shorter for householder schemes.
Refusal does not prevent a fresh attempt. Applicants often address the reasons for refusal and resubmit, so a refused scheme is not necessarily the end of proposals for the site.
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.

T1 Prunus - reduce by 1.5 metres and crown thin, primarily to prevent damage to roof located next to the tree. T2 Staghorn Sumac - coppice, work required due to tree causing damage to nearby roof, reduction would not achieve much, therefore a coppice would be a far better option. T3 Magnolia - crown thin with slight reduction up to 1 metre where necessary.
