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.

    24/00528/TPO Submitted 7 May 2024 55m away

    The tree is the single pine tree (30/T26) at the property; the works involve underpinning the nearest parts of the property to the tree to a depth as explained in the method statement - the precise depth depends upon the depth of roots found. This work does not need planning permission based on the Town & Country Planning Act s55(2)(a) definition of development. However, the works will cut roots of the pine tree & thus this application is submitted in case the council consider it necessary. These works are necessitated as a result of refusal of tree works application 23/00806/TPO. The reason for the works are due to root-induced clay shrinkage subsidence. In the event this application is refused then a more expensive engineering option (e.g. a piled raft) will be necessary although it may have no significantly less impact on the pine tree. The reasonably foreseeable loss arising from the council's refusal of this application may be as much as £200,000 as alternative accommodation for several months will be required.
