What refusal means
The process from here
The council refused this application for the reasons set out on the decision notice, which the council portal holds in full. Only the applicant can appeal a refusal; the time limit runs from the decision date and is shorter for householder schemes.
Refusal does not prevent a fresh attempt. Applicants often address the reasons for refusal and resubmit, so a refused scheme is not necessarily the end of proposals for the site.
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.

Tippetts Cottage Kenwyn Truro Cornwall TR1 3DR
Works to trees subject to a Tree Preservation Order, namely; 1) T1 Large Spruce, (unsure if this tree is old enough to be covered by the TPO 1974) Tree is considered too large for its current location, close to neighbouring property and just on drive. The owner feels anxious during strong winds and has concern that the tree could potentially fall. There is limited scope for reduction works, as any significant reduction would affect visual amenity. The tree is not considered a high quality speciman and not in keeping with other trees in the area. The costumer would like to fell the tree and re-plant with a birch species. 2) T2 Large Sycamore, mature tree with large low lateral limb which is overextending. We would like to reduce this section to help prevent possible future failure. reduce by approx. 10-15% please see ref 2
