   Decision issued: Refusal of Tree Preservation Order Works

4. 17 Aug 2026

   Added to PlanIndex

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.

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 Rookery Lane Groby Leicester Leicestershire LE6 0GL

  T1 Lawsons Cypress: Removal of the Lawsons Cypress is proposed due to its very close proximity to the adjacent property, approximately 1.5 metres away. T2 Cedar of Lebanon: Reduce all lateral and upper branches by approximately 3 metres to maintain a smaller, more manageable crown size and reduce the potential risk of branch failure.
