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 this record

Reading the register

This page mirrors an entry on the statutory planning register that Islington is required to keep. The published feed for this record does not state which type of application it is, which is common for older entries and for some council systems; the register entry on the council portal will say, alongside the case officer and any consultation dates.

Every planning application follows the same broad path: submission, validation, publicity, then a decision by officers or committee. Our guide to planning application types explains the common types and what each can approve.

  • P2026/1408/TRE Granted

    136 Mildmay Road, London

    There is a large bay tree (laurus nobilis) in the back of my garden whose roots are spreading, leading to multiple bay trees sprouting from the ground. This tree is also leaning into my neighbours garden, blocking much of their sun. I would like to take both stems down to the ground. There is also an elderflower tree (Sambucus) from next door whose branches cover half of my garden; I would like to prune these back to the fence (0.5m) a) because I worry they carry a health and safety risk (should they snap in a storm) and b) it leaves my entire garden shrouded in shade, not matter how bright it is. There is also a Yoshino cherry tree (prunus x yedoenis) next door whose branches have spread across my garden, and almost into my next neighbours as well, this also presents a health and safety risk should there be a storm. I would like to prune this back to the fence (1.5m)
