What a grant of permission means
The process from here
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.
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.

T1: Eucalyptus - Fell to ground level T2: Cherry - Fell to ground level T3: Cordyline - Fell to ground level Reason for works: The Eucalyptus and cherry trees have cavities and the cordyline is unwanted. To ensure no long term loss of amenity value as required by S.197 of the Town and Country Planning Act (1990) and to adhere to the Hackney Local Plan 2033 policy LP51 B, three replacement trees will be planted in the rear garden. The new trees will be at least light standard size (6-8 cm girth), be native species or those known to benefit local wildlife, be climate resilient, and also be species that are not considered invasive in Hackney. The replacement trees will be planted during the planting season, either at the time of felling (end October - end March) or during the next immediately available planting season.
