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.

    T1 - YEW - (313/T28) - Fell to ground level - replant similar species T2 - LIME - (313/T27) - No works T3 - LIME - (313/T29) - No works Reason for work -Yew tree is growing under a TPO lime tree and causing it to grow towards the house and be unbalanced and overstretched. Subsequently causing dieback of the lime tree on lower limbs which is resulting in deadwood over a high rush area of access and egress. - Through root competition with the Lime, the yew tree has concentrated its main roots towards the house and has caused damage to the front garden patio slabs and making an unsafe and hazardous footing. Felling yew tree and then replanting a smaller species away from the canopy of the lime will remedy these matters and help the TPO flourish.
