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.

9 Flat B First Floor,Lena Gardens,London,Hammersmith And Fulham,W6 7PY
Back garden, over 20ft, blocks out sun in garden which my gp says i need. Drops seeds that grow in the soil all over the garden. This makes it difficult to complete my work as i have to constantly kill roots of the plants that drop. Aggravates severe hayfever and asthma. Cut down to the stump due the space it takes up in my garden. Will not affect any such wildlife as the exact same tree is in my neighbours garden.
