Proposal
(TG1) Portuguese Laurels x3 Crown reduce and reshape x3 Laurels by approx 25-30% - routine maintenance. Council Note: The submitted notice relates to TG1 Portuguese Laurel x3. Portuguese Laurel is commonly described by the RHS as a shrub rather than a tree. On the information available the submitted vegetation is not considered to fall within the scope of a Section 211 tree works notice. The Council therefore has no powers to consider the proposed works as tree works in a Conservation Area. The Conservation Area notice has been withdrawn. Heights from 3.0m to a minimum of 2.1m Crown spreads from 2.0m to a minimum of 1.4m

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The applicant is free to submit a revised application at any time, and many withdrawn schemes return in amended form, so the site is worth watching if the proposal affected you.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.
