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.

Flat A, 97 Benthal Road, Hackney, London, N16 7AP
One of the two large sycamore trees on the boarder fence with my flat 95a (council) is oversized. There is another one next to it that has been trimmed last year also oversized but remaining. I request permission to fell one tree that is leaning right over my fence and significantly affecting my own and surrounding gardens. These do not have a preservation order on them, but are in a conservation area. I have permission off the landlord of 97a to get this felled.
