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 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.

Back Flat 1 Florence Terrace Falmouth Cornwall TR11 3RR
Works to trees in a conservation area namely Acacia Dealbata, Mimosa Tree at the main entrance to the property and garden. Remove first lowest limb over hanging the path, reduce over hang/crown lift to roughly in line with the boundary hedge but maintaining best athletic balance. Reduce crown in hight approx 1.5m and thin crown < 10%. Tree is leaning towards the road and path. Old wound in the base, back of stem, could indicate decay in base. Needs to have weight removed and crown clean to prevent wind throw, risk to life and to increase the likelihood of the future of the tree. Lower limb is at low head height causing obstruction.
