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.

T1 London Plane - front garden - Fell to ground level and grind stump - close to house, unsuitable for location due to its size and ongoing management, requiring cyclical pruning to maintain acceptable clearance from the property and surrounding structures. Roots lifting block paving and other superficial hard landscaping. Expected to worsen as tree matures. A neighbouring tree of similar stature and influence has previously been removed as part of measures to mitigate potential subsidence related concerns. Retention would effect local soil moisture levels. To ensure continued canopy cover and amenity value, replacement planting is proposed with a more suitable small to medium sized species located an appropriate distance from buildings and hard surfaces.
