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 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.

17 Dee Banks Chester Cheshire CH3 5UU
Silver Birch at south end of garden - crown lifting proposed and pruning of long and dangerous branch to restore balanced shape to the tree. Sycamore on eastern boundary of the plot - fell. The tree is an adventitious growth of low amenity value on a restricted site close to the neighbour's garage and the side wall of no. 17. The tree is becoming too large for the location and is potentially unstable due to the steep slope down to the neighbouring property. It also interferes with the telephone lines and has become covered with ivy despite attempts to prevent its growth.
