Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
Crown lifting and lateral pruning of the mature Oak tree located adjacent to the eastern boundary to accommodate an authorized single-storey side extension. Selective pruning of lower branches to provide vertical clearance above the new roofline, and cutting back lateral branches to the boundary line to remove structural overhang over the construction site.

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 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.
