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.

    T7 Lime (x1) Fell to ground level. Reason: The tree has been planted too close to the pathway. It is now lifting the paving slabs which has created a trip hazard and prevents the gate from opening properly. Severing and digging out the problem root is not an option because it is too close to the trunk and could destablilise the tree.(see photo).
