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 householder applications

How this application type works

Householder applications cover work to an existing house and its garden: extensions, loft and garage conversions, porches, outbuildings and similar alterations within the boundary of the home. They cannot be used to create a separate dwelling or change what the building is used for. Councils aim to decide them within eight weeks, and immediate neighbours are usually notified and given a chance to comment.

    24 Fairacres Cobham Surrey KT11 2JW

    Tree Preservation Order EL:10/04 - T1 - Cedar - A large limb has fallen into the play area doing minor damage. Likely due to "summer branch drop". There is evidence in the crown of other historic limb failures + cedars naturally have a disposition to shed heavy limbs. Given the changing weather patterns it seems probable that hot springs/summers will produce conditions for branch drop more + more frequently. We proposed a an approx. 20% reduction in weight on all major libs by selective thinning, aiming to keep pruning cuts at a maximum diameter of 75mm, No reduction in overall height or diameter, with the objective of reducing probability of future failures.

    1 Heatherbank Close Cobham Surrey KT11 2LT

    Tree Preservation Order - T1 - Oak - cut back branches by 2m on east side of the tree overhanging garden to leave a finished spread of 10m. The tree excessively overhangs the garden of this property causing heavy shading. The proposed reduction will reduce the weight from branch ends reducing the risk of limb failure and creating a sunnier aspect for this family garden. This level of pruning will comply with the recommendations of BS3998 and will not detract from the natural form and aesthetics of the tree.
