Planning application
26/00703/TPO
10 Chartwell Place Epsom Surrey KT18 5JH
Proposal
Reduction of T1 Sycamore (15/G4) as stated on the map at the front of the property. Tree heavily shadows the property. Reduce the crown by 1.5m all round to create a well shaped and balanced crown. All cuts will be taken back to suitable growth points to ensure all work complies with BS3998. The tree is currently dropping large amounts of leaves and seed pods that a blocking the gutters and the air vents of the car parked below on the driveway. A crown reduction should help reduce the amount of falling debris and allow more light into the property whilst maintaining a well balanced tree. ALL WORK WILL BE COMPLIANT WITH BS3998
As published by the council, reference 26/00703/TPO

What happens while it is decided
The process from here
This application is with Epsom and Ewell for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.
The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.
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.
