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.

Oak (T68, TPO ref W1) - Reduce upper central canopy and canopy over road by 1.5m back to previous pruning points, due to decay cavity defects. Reduce long primary southern limb by 2-3m back to suitable growth points to reduce failure potential. 1no. Monterey Pine (T80, TPO ref W4) - Crown reduce by 1.5m to reduce sail area and exposure due to structural defects, exposure and proximity to the highway. 1no. Copper Beech (T106, TPO ref T37) - Fell due to terminal decline and presence of Meripilus giganteas in rootzone and buttress that presents a risk of windthrow in high use area.

5 SYDNEY ROAD, BISHOPSTOKE, EASTLEIGH, SO50 6DJ
1no. Silver Birch (T1) - On the side facing the house and garden a reduction of 2m to remove the branches that touch the roofs. On the side facing the road a reduction of 1.5m in order to clear the street light. 1no. Norwegian Spruce (T2) - Reduction of 1m all round, maintaining the present shape. 1no. Norwegian Spruce (T3) - Reduction of 1.5m on the southern side facing the telegraph pole to disentangle the branches from the phone lines. On the side facing the road a reduction of 1m maintaining the current shape of the tree. The branches of T1 are resting on roof of garage and house, potentially leading to the dislodging of roof tiles and consequent leaks. Branches are fouling the streetlight on Sydney Road and the telephone lines from the telegraph pole adjacent to house. T2 and T3 are fouling the telephone lines from the telegraph pole and the weight of the lower branches is resting on the telephone line to the house. All 3 trees are looking very heavy due to shallowness of their roots. To conduct routine maintenance on the trees within property's curtilage. They have grown very large since last pruned several years ago, do not want them to fall and cause damage or harm through lack of appropriate care.

104 PITMORE ROAD, EASTLEIGH, SO50 4LW
1no. Oak (T13) - Crown reduction by 4m, also back to previous cut lines. Drip line for tree is currently within 3m of the rear of the property (104 Pitmore Road). Mature oak tree exhibiting extended lateral growth toward adjacent residential properties, resulting in significant end-weight on primary and secondary branches. The proposed reduction is intended to reduce end-weight, improve biomechanical stability, and mitigate foreseeable risk to property, while retaining the trees’ natural form, amenity value, and long-term health.

T/26/101492 Granted
13-17 HURSLEY ROAD, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 2FW
1no. Mature Oak (T1) – Crown reduction by reducing the lateral spread of the canopy by up to 3m on the longest extending limbs and by up to 2m elsewhere around the crown, maintaining a natural and balanced canopy form. The tree is situated within a commercial car park and overhangs adjacent pavement and highway areas. The crown also extends towards nearby telephone and overhead power lines. The proposed works form part of an ongoing cyclical maintenance programme to manage the size and spread of the crown in relation to surrounding infrastructure and site usage. A visible stress line is present from the principal stem union extending down the main trunk, indicating a potential structural weakness. The proposed crown reduction will lessen end-weight and sail effect throughout the canopy, thereby reducing loading on the main scaffold limbs and stem unions. This will help minimise the likelihood of branch or stem failure and improve the long-term management of risk associated with the tree's location above areas of regular pedestrian and vehicular activity. The works will retain the tree's amenity value while promoting its continued safe retention within the landscape.
