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.

    21/0279/TCA Submitted 9 Feb 2021 99m away

    Silver Birch tree marked on Aerial View of garden, and clearly identified in the photos attached is of low amenity value and is to be removed in order to make room for replacement fruit-bearing plum and cherry trees (one of each), positioned either side of the silver birch stump. It is understood that in years past the garden to 206 High Street, along with adjoining land, formed part of an orchard - hence, presumably, the name of the small close of properties immediately to the south. An ageing plum tree, also shown in the photos, which is no longer fruit-bearing and has been pruned somewhat indiscriminately by a previous occupier of the property, stands beside the silver birch and will be removed, potentially to make way for a third new fruit tree (plum or cherry). The new trees will be purchased as potted standards from a local nursery/garden centre. Neither tree is subject to a preservation order, but are within a Conservation Area.
