What happens while it is decided
The process from here
This application is with Cheshire West and Chester 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 heritage and listed buildings applications
How this application type works
Heritage applications concern listed buildings and conservation areas. Listed building consent is needed for works, inside or out, that affect the special interest of a listed building, and carrying out such works without consent is a criminal offence. The council weighs harm to the heritage asset against any public benefit of the proposal.

Barrow Church of England Primary School, Playing Field Ferma Lane Barrow Chester CH3 7HW
1. Prune the re-growth of a Weeping Willow tree (T1) back to its previous pruning point. This tree is described as a large individual specimen bifurcating at 2.5m forming three co-dominant stems, which had previously been pollarded at 5m due to previous failure. There is vigorous re-growth on weak attachments at the stage where it requires removing to ensure stability and safety. Some branches are lying on the flat roof of an adjacent mobile classroom with potential for damage. 2. Prune the re-growth of an apple tree (T2). This tree is described as an old fruit tree with severe stem decay, which had previously been topped at 3m with good re-growth bearing fruit. This heavy growth is on weak attachments, so the tree requires pruning to maintain stability. Both these recommendations for pruning are assessed as Priority 1 - High: Action to be taken immediately (within 1 - 2 months). 3. Remove basal growth from a cherry tree (T6). 4. Prune re-growth on sides and top to shape on a Leyland Cypress (G4). Both these recommendations for pruning are assessed as Priority 3 - Low: Not essential work, but would benefit the tree (within 12 - 24 months).
