What a grant of permission means

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.

    As a result of our annual tree safety inspection a number of works to trees have been identified at Castle Rising, i would like to apply for consent to carry out these works, inspectors notes and recommendations are as follows: 4219 - Pinus sylvestris - Primary limb on western aspect of crown has split and remains hung-up in adjacent tree. Low risk as limb likely to remain in situ for years, though removal and pruning to stem advised. 4220 - Pinus sylvestris - Crown dieback , stem exudation and borer holes in stem. Tree located immediately left of main entrance to castle from carpark, lean bias over path. Irreversible and possible speedy decline likely. Tree is smaller than most in group. Removal to ground level advised to mitigate risk of tree failure if severe decline realised within 12 months. Orange paint applied. 4222 - Acer platanoides - Recently defoliated tree on perimeter/entrance to adjacent field. Very low occupancy area however cambium has now ceased to be functional, bark deamination is evident throughout and primary limb failure is now highly likely. Tree removal to ground level advised. 4223 - Pinus sylvestris - The tree appears in good condition overall, however at approximately 6m above ground level on the northern and southern sides of the stem, indication of an internal axial shear fracture is presented by bark separation, mirrored in location and length on the N and S sides. The tree leans eastward, and the crown weighted eastward, over two adjacent trees and tge entrance footpath. Risk mitigation via heavy crown reduction is an option, whereby the lowest 3x primary limbs would form the crown, ie removal of the bifurcated leaders approximately 3m above the top of the crack. This would significantly reduce stress at the fracture and avoid a clear gap in the group. 4224 - Quercus robur - Axial split and bark delamination on eastern primary - low risk and low likelihood of failure, however limb reduction by 3m to suitable growth point advis...

    2/TPO/00205 - Two lime trees located out the front of the property that our client wants reduced. One of the trees has shed a branch onto neighbours property. We are looking to thin the trees and give a crown reduction up to 3m depending on pruning points and to manage a shape of both trees. The trees are full of epicormic growth and are covering the lients/neighbours garden. They want them reduced to keep on top of growth, manage the trees from having future limb failures, allow more light onto grass and give a balanced canopy. As you know lime trees are very fast growing so they want to keep on top of the trees as they are taking up all the space in the garden. I can see they have been done previously in the past

    The works involve excavation within the root protection area of trees that are under Tree Protection Order Ref: 2/TPO/00126. Some root pruning and exposing tree roots is expected and it is required. No work shall be undertaken without the appropriate consent in place. The excavation will be approximately 2.8mL x 1.2mW x 1.2mD and will be undertaken using a combination of hand digging, air spade and vacuum excavation. Supervision during the excavation will be required. The following outline of detailed works can be seen within the AMS attached with this submission. All works will be supervised by a qualified arborist.

    Walnut tree planted by ourselves approx. 20 years ago - we want to 'uplift' the tree by removing the lowest 6 branches. The branches are significantly overhanging the kitchen roof of our house, rubbing against the flue to our Woodburner in our kitchen/diner and casting shade over our greenhouse making it impossible to grow anything.
