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.

    Garstone Youngwoods Way Alverstone Garden Village Newchurch Isle Of Wight PO36 0HE

    Amendment to proposed works (received 07.07.2026): T1; Oak (Quercus robur) (located on driveway) - Crown clean by removing all deadwood, epicormic growth and crossing branches, promoting a healthy canopy. The remaining tree is to be pruned away from all overhead BT lines that are running through the canopy by a 10% canopy thin. Reason: Promote healthy canopy and clear BT lines. T2; Oak (Quercus robur) - Remove to ground level due. Reason: Poor growth structure. Removing this will promote growth in surrounding, more established oaks by giving them more space and access to light. T3; Multi stem Silver Birch (Betula pendula) - Dismantle to ground level. Reason: Growing into nearby oaks causing them to compete for light and space, preventing them from maturing. T4; Large Oak (Quercus robur) - Crown raised by 2 metres to create a canopy and trunk. The remaining canopy reduced by 20% from branch tips to create a balanced tree shape and remove the movement in the wind. A further 10% reduced by thinning of dead wood, epicormic growth, and crossing branches. Reason: To allow light & wind to pass through the canopy and improving tree health.
