Planning application
26/00759/TW
The Lodge Popham Road Shanklin Isle Of Wight PO37 6RF
Proposal
1; Oak (front of the property) - Cut back to good growth points, giving a 2.5m clearance to the building. Reason: Clearance of building. 2; Cedar (back of the property) - Cut back to good growth points, giving a 2.5m clearance to the building. Reason: Clearance of building. This tree continually blocks our gutters, which has resulted in damp within the living area of the house. It is also seeding our roof which is resulting in lots of tree growth on the roof. Recently, a large limb fell damaging adjacent trees. 3; Lawson Cypress (South West corner of the house) - Remove. Reason: Overhanging the building at our southwest corner, limits light and is competing with and obscuring a very attractive purple beech tree.

What happens while it is decided
The process from here
This application is with Isle of Wight 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.
