1 John Watkin Close Epsom Surrey KT19 7LW
Proposal
Mixed Species (287/W1), are interfering with the reasonable enjoyment of a large proportion of the surrounding area. There is a large (unidentified) dominant tree in close proximity to the property which is dropping debris on the footpath, making it dangerous. We will trim back to boundary by up to 2 metres.
As published by the council, reference 26/00782/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.
