What happens while it is decided
The process from here
This application is with Islington 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.

P2025/0928/TRE Withdrawn
8, Flat 1, Middleton Grove, London, N7 9LU
I am the executor for the estate of the deceased owner of the flat. We are seeking permission to remove two trees which are highlighted in the attached photo from the street. The reason we believe this is necessary is that, as the photo from the garden shows, these trees are next to a brick perimeter wall. They are clearly damaging it and causing it to lean outwards, and it looks as if they will at some point destabilise it. I think they are some sort of cherry, but I hope you will be able to identify the species better than I can from the photos
