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.

    T1,T2,T3 management of Leyland Cypress conifer to prevent excessive growth and shading of the three mature conifers that form a 20ft+ hedge. Reducing height to 15ft and pruning back spread to suitable live growth points. T4 management of Leyland Cypress conifer (tree is in in 46 Ewell Downs Road garden). It is proposed to undertake minor pruning works by reducing the overhanging branches of conifer extending above the planting beds containing laurels, pruning back to suitable live growth points. The purpose of the work is to lessen excessive shading of the shrubs beneath and improve light levels and rainfall to support their continued growth. Pruning will be carried out in accordance with good arboricultural practice, retaining the tree's overall form and health. The works are intended to provide a balanced relationship between the existing tree and the surrounding landscaping while preserving the screening function of the conifer.
