   Decision issued: Application Permitted

   Added to PlanIndex

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.

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.

  2 Knapp House Silver Street Kingsbury Episcopi Martock Somerset TA12 6AX

  Notification of intent to Fell No. 1 Tree within a Conservation Area. T1 - Yew - grew out of our existing privet hedge opposite the Methodist chapel approximately 20 years ago. We intend to remove it because it causes an obstruction to traffic, particularly higher vehicles, and forces them into the middle of the road in what is already a narrow stretch and a difficult spot for pedestrians. By its nature the yew will only become larger and become more of a problem as time goes on.
