What happens while it is decided

The process from here

This application is with Hammersmith and Fulham 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 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.

    2025/01972/TREE Submitted 16 Jul 2025 37m away

    96% historically approved · decision due ~11 Sep

    I have a single large Lime tree in the Rear Garden of my property, 37 Cromwell Grove,W6 7RQ, and I am seeking approval to pollard this tree back to its original pollarding points. The tree requires pollarding every 3 years for two reasons: first, the health of the tree itself; and second, because the tree blocks out sunlight to my own and neighbouring gardens to an extent that is unreasonable and disruptive. I have owned the property since 2007, and have used professional tree surgeons to pollard this tree regularly (with appropriate permissions) and it is now due to be pollarded again (previous application September 2022). I am submitting as part of this application a sketch showing the position of the tree, its foliage and the negative impact on sunlight to neighbouring gardens. I have used this same sketch in successful applications for pollarding in the past. Thank you in advance.
