   Decision issued: Refused

   Added to PlanIndex

The council refused this application for the reasons set out on the decision notice, which the council portal holds in full. Only the applicant can appeal a refusal; the time limit runs from the decision date and is shorter for householder schemes.

Refusal does not prevent a fresh attempt. Applicants often address the reasons for refusal and resubmit, so a refused scheme is not necessarily the end of proposals for the site.

A full application seeks permission for a complete, detailed proposal in one go: siting, design, access and landscaping are all fixed at this stage. It is the standard route for new buildings, conversions and changes of use. The statutory target is eight weeks for smaller schemes and thirteen weeks for major development, though complex cases often take longer by agreement.

T 01934 mature Beech (identified as an Ash in the report) - Remove tree as it shows the fruiting bodies of Giant Polypore (fungal infection) at the base of the tree (identified in report). This tree is now completely dead and overhangs the practice nets on the adjacent cricket ground. This tree was surveyed in winter and likely died over the winter which is why it was not identified as dead in the report. T01932 is a mature Ash (identified as a Norway Maple in the report) - Remove tree. Shows fruiting bodies of Artists Fungus at the base of the tree (identified in report) and significant thinning of the canopy potentially due to Ash Dieback infection (this would not have been easily identified at the time of the report as the tree was surveyed not in leaf).
