Planning application

Works: Trees
Withdrawn before a decision, so it carries no planning weight. A revised scheme can be submitted at any time.
Proposal
T.4 Oak - 2-3m Holistic crown reduction providing 2m clearance from house, crown lift to 4m from ground level and deadwood. T.5 Maple - 20% Crown reshape, crown lift to 4m from ground level and deadwood. T.2 Scotts pine - Remove dead branches at lower levels. Reduce crown of tree which is competing with crown of adjacent Scotts Pine situated in adjoins property. T.1 Lawson Cypress - fell tree and replace with tree further away from rear of property. ( This application was granted consent on 14/10/2020 but never actioned within the timetable prescribed by the consent). The reasons for remove of the tree are: It is a foreign fast growing evergreen tree which is not typically subject to a TPO. The tree has grown rapidly over the last few years and now overpowers the garden. Due to its thick foliage it is blocking out the sun from the back garden of the house and stops most plants from growing in the garden. It is very close to the house and blocks out the light coming into the windows. As the tree continues to grow there is a strong possibility that it will cause damage to the structure of the house. There are two Scotts Pines and a Sycamore tree in the same rear garden. The Lawson Cypress has no real amenity value. Situated in the back garden it is not readily visible from Corkran Road so its removal will not damage the streetscape of the Road. The plot of 27 Corkran Road has a number of trees which provide much higher amenity value. These include: a mature oak tree, a mature Canadian Maple, 2 Scots Pines which is an old and attractive tree. The Lawson Cypress has no real amenity value.

What withdrawal means
The process from here
The applicant withdrew this application before the council decided it, so it carries no planning weight and no fee refund is automatic. Withdrawal often follows officer feedback that a refusal was likely.
The applicant is free to submit a revised application at any time, and many withdrawn schemes return in amended form, so the site is worth watching if the proposal affected you.
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.
