What refusal means

The process from here

The council refused this application for the reasons set out on the decision notice, which the council portal holds in full. Only the applicant can appeal a refusal; the time limit runs from the decision date and is shorter for householder schemes.

Refusal does not prevent a fresh attempt. Applicants often address the reasons for refusal and resubmit, so a refused scheme is not necessarily the end of proposals for the site.

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.

    2 Grace Avenue Shenley Radlett Hertfordshire WD7 9DN

    (T4)Conifer tree, to remove a limb picture attached. (T3)Yew Tree Crown reduction by 1.5-2m - we will be reducing the tree from 12m to 11m in height and 11m to 9.5m in width. Yew tree to remove all dead diseased or crossing branches 2 inches in diameter or larger. The reasons for the works is that the tree is very large and needs to have a crown reduction as it is causing the grass surrounding it to be heavily shaded and causing locking of sunlight to the mansion house. The tenants do not want it removed for various reasons, just slightly reduced.
