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.

Heritage applications concern listed buildings and conservation areas. Listed building consent is needed for works, inside or out, that affect the special interest of a listed building, and carrying out such works without consent is a criminal offence. The council weighs harm to the heritage asset against any public benefit of the proposal.

All pruning cuts to be made at suitable growth points Remove all cut material from site & return to a Devon Tree Services depot for recycling, leaving the area safe, clean & tidy. Justification for Proposed Works The proposed works to the Bay, Pittosporum, and Viburnum are intended to maintain the trees at an appropriate size in a residential garden setting and to prevent them from becoming over-dominant. The works will improve light levels into both the garden and the adjacent properties, reducing shading while retaining the trees as amenity features within the conservation area. All reductions will be sympathetic, with pruning cuts made at suitable growth points in accordance with BS 3998:2010 Tree Work Recommendations. Canopies will be trimmed back to previous pruning points to maintain natural shape and form, while retaining a high proportion of the foliage-bearing structure to ensure continued health and vitality. Epicormic growth will be removed to provide clear stems and improve overall tree form. The proposed works are considered proportionate, ensuring the trees remain healthy and in keeping with their setting, while balancing the reasonable enjoyment of the property by the occupants.
