Planning application
1 Greenways Totland Totland Bay Isle Of Wight PO39 0ED
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1; Oak (Quercus robur) is located on the left side of the property and is wished to be removed to ground level. Reason: Close to a nearby building and surrounding trees. The surrounding trees are older, bigger, and are causing T1 to grow towards the property with the lack of light and space. The removal of T1 will enhance the growth for surrounding trees and create a clearance between the building before issues arise. T2; Oak (Quercus robur) - Reduce by 20% from branch tip back to suitable growth points, no greater than 1/3 of the adjacent pruning cut on the overextended NE facing limb. Reason: Reduce the weight and limb twisting in the wind above the garage on the property, improve the natural tree shape which is currently being affected by this over extended limb.

The process from here
Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.
Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.
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.
