The process from here
This application is with Exeter 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 prior approval applications
How this application type works
Prior approval applications arise where permitted development rights already grant the principle of the work, such as larger home extensions, changes of use to housing or agricultural buildings. The council may only consider the specific matters set out in the rules, for example transport, flooding or appearance, and in many classes the work may proceed if the council does not respond within the deadline, commonly 56 days.

3A Heavitree Park Exeter EX1 3BP
Proposed Works T1 ? Sycamore Reduce canopy by approximately 20% (1?2m). Avoid large-diameter cuts. Maintain a balanced structure and natural form. T9 ? Beech Reduce overall height to align with the reduced sycamore (2?3m). Reduce lateral branches by approximately 1m. Undertake a 10% canopy thin to improve light penetration. T2, T3, T4, T5, T6, T7 & T8 ? Coniferous Trees/Shrubs Fell and remove all specified coniferous trees/shrubs. Stump grind to below ground level. Works to facilitate replanting with more suitable species. Justification for Works: T1 (Sycamore) & T9 (Beech): Works are proposed to improve light penetration into the garden, supporting the growth and establishment of understory planting and other vegetation. T2?T8 (Coniferous group): Removal is recommended due to their close proximity to the property / retaining wall and to create space for replanting with species more suitable to the site context.

5 Heavitree Park Exeter EX1 3BP
T1 - Silk Tassel bush: Fell Reasons: This tree is growing close the wall of the property. It is not a big tree, and fairly insignificant in terms of the the amenity value of the area, and not visible from the road. Replanting of a similar species of tree is advised further from the wall of the property, so that it will have space to mature and form a natural habit. T2 - Variegated Holly: Fell Reasons: There is a fairly significant area of decay at the base of the tree, which has caused dieback in the crown. It does have amenity value, situated near the road, but is in decline. The decay is likely to continue to reduce the vigour of the tree, and cause eventual death. So it will be a better strategy to replant a variegated Holly somewhere near this spot, and possibly further out from the corner of the house to provide space to mature.
