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.

    Argal Home Farm Kergilliack Falmouth Cornwall TR11 5PD

    Works to trees subject to a Tree Preservation Order, namely; 1) T01482 Sycamore - fell to ground level. The sycamore is beyond retention due to the damage sustained by the fallen Beech. 2) T01481 Beech (large) - fell to ground level. This was previously sheltered by the failed tree and is now exposed, making it more vulnerable with the crown bias towards the property/work buildings. 3) T01198 Beech & Beech next to it (smaller) - fell to ground level. The canopies of these smaller trees are unbalanced due to the exposure to strong winds. Leaving these two alone will make them more exposed and potentially hazardous.
